I generally recommend pernambuco bows over carbon-fiber bows for my students, but this stick sounds like a really good option for someone looking for a quality stick under $1000. Carbon-fiber bows tend to have a flatter, less interesting sound than pernambuco bows, but they usually handle as well as a really good pernambuco bow. This new bow from Coda Bows for bass sounds like a really good option. Check it out:

Also, check out Coda Bow’s website for more general information on carbon fiber bows. Coda Bow has only recently started making bass bows.
