How do I choose the right bow for my bass?

This is where, as a beginner, you need your teacher’s advice. Unlike the other bowed stringed instruments there are two distinct types of bow for the bass; French and German. The grip and playing styles differ considerably. If you are used to playing just pizzicato it will be a shock to discover that, with a bow, people will be able to tell if you are playing out of tune much more easily!
