Shar Music is a Legend.

I've been a customer of Shar for over 50 years.

My 1st purchase was a set of bass strings, and a bridge with a Barcus-Berry pickup built in.

Great pickup for bowing

Installed it on my bass and was thrilled to hear how it sounded on the amp. Picks up the wood tones from bowing well.

Different frog than what’s shown still unique.

Wood quality and craftsmanship is wonderful. My bow arrived looking both lighter than the example and the frog didn’t have as carved edges as the bow presented. However it had its circle channel for the frog. Great balance and stability. Very lively when needed and also so amazingly clear when playing legato. You also have great access to grit when needed. Wonderful tool. And I enjoys its unique style and amazing quality.
