- Material and construction: made from fine, ductile ponytail hair for consistent strand strength and flexibility. Designed for long service life under normal playing conditions. - Key benefits: - Durable replacement: resists breakage and wear, reducing the need for frequent restringing. - Improved bow control: the hair’s natural texture provides reliable grip and smooth vibration, helping with precise bowing and dynamic control. - Clear, expressive tone: produces a pure, balanced sound that supports both soft passages and stronger articulations. - Compatibility and fit: specifically manufactured for standard erhu loop bows. The replacement loop hair integrates into the bow arc for proper tension and playability without altering the instrument’s setup. - Function and performance: optimized to transfer bow energy evenly across the strings so you get stable response, consistent sound quality, and predictable feel during practice, performance, or recording. - Typical applications: 1. Replace worn or broken loop hair before concerts or recitals to restore tonal clarity and control. 2. Use for daily practice and lessons to maintain consistent playability and reduce interruptions from hair breakage. 3. Install for studio or live recording sessions where a clean, dependable tone is needed. - Installation and care: intended as a direct replacement for standard erhu bows. Keep hair clean and lightly rosined as usual; avoid exposure to extreme humidity or heat to maintain longevity. - What it solves: restores bow function when original loop hair is frayed or lost tension, improves grip and response for better technique execution, and lengthens intervals between full restringing. - Who should buy: erhu players, teachers, students, instrument repairers, and anyone needing a reliable replacement loop hair for standard erhu bows.
