The Bow Hold Buddies Set for violin is a teaching aid that will help fix a violin bow hold in an instant!

If you are having trouble forming a correct violin bow hold, then this is the perfect violin teaching aid for you. Once installed on your bow, the clever frog and fish shaped device will guide your hand into the right position.

The frog encourages a curved thumb and positions your hand on an angle, while the fish on the end is a pinky rest that helps enforce a rounded pinky finger. Together, the frog and fish train the hand to hold the bow correctly and naturally through muscle memory, thereby freeing the player to learn and enjoy other elements of string playing.
