How our reviews work

  • A few days after your order ships we'll email you a link to leave a review. When your feedback is published it will carry a Customer verified badge, so others know it came from a real order with us.
  • We only ever edit a review to remove profanity, spam, or personal details - otherwise it's published exactly as written, good or bad. We won’t ever remove or edit critical ones.
  • You don't need to have bought a product from us to review it - if you know the product, we want you to let other shoppers know what you honestly think, using the form on the product page. These are moderated in the same way, but won't carry our Customer verified badge.

Introducing the Sonix by MMX 63 student Sandalwood viola bow

The MMX63 Student series bows are a notch above the standard student bow offering and make for a superb beginner, replacement or second bow. Ideal for players of all ages and styles, and popular with teachers and progressing students.

These bows are consistently produced using a composite wood, with detailed frog sliders, mother of pearl inlays, and ebony and white copper fittings. The octagonal sandalwood stick has a gentle curve and good springy tension to help with string crossing and various bowing techniques, and the lapping adds the correct weighting to the bow. They’re also fitted with white unbleached horsehair.

Using the latest in lightweight materials, they’re light enough to reduce fatigue during long playing sessions, without compromising on tone or projection.

Also available for violin, cello and French-style double bass.

The MMX range

MMX has been working with master luthier Guofang Wang and his family workshop for nearly a decade, producing a wide selection of orchestral stringed instruments. MMX bows combine the historical traditions of bow making with quality, durable materials and expert craftmanship. The result is a versatile bow which will suit a broad range of players. For the beginner, the Student series offers the best start in the playing journey.
