Tailor-made for Developing Technique
For beginning students, a high-quality bow is essential. A student-level bow needs to be well-balanced, comfortable to hold, and easy to use; otherwise, the student is in danger of developing bad habits. Or worse yet, the student may become frustrated and quit. From frog to tip, the CodaBow Prodigy was tailor-made to meet the needs of a developing musician. The Prodigy's center-tip balance is incredibly forgiving, allowing newer players to develop their bowing technique with confidence. This bow's medium weight allows for agile playability, and its firm action facilitates a deep string connection that students will find inspiring. Moreover, the Prodigy's stiffer design helps steady a novice's hand for a clearer, more even tone. The Prodigy features an eco-friendly Xebony frog, and its GlobalBow designation ensures that no endangered, monitored, or regulated species were involved in its manufacturing. You'll need to look long and hard to find a better bow than the CodaBow Prodigy to support a student's developing technique.

Facilitates proper development
The Prodigy is one of the few beginner-level bows designed specifically to help students develop proper playing technique. Its steady, forgiving center-tip balance accommodates the coarse motor control inherent in novice players, so they can learn the correct way to move their right hand. Likewise, this bow's medium-light weight ensures it's responsive and easy to maneuver. Students will appreciate the Prodigy's firm action; the way it moves across the strings feels smooth, effortless, and easy to control. Finally, this bow's high level of stiffness helps steady a beginning student's hand, making it easier for them to produce a clear, even tone.
Eco-friendly Xebony frog
The CodaBow Prodigy features a frog made from eco-friendly Xebony, a proprietary blend of natural fibers and resin with a performance that equals — and some would say exceeds — that of instrument-grade ebony. For starters, its stronger and more durable than natural ebony. And, as the string players here at Sweetwater will attest, Xebony's rich luster and natural grain are exquisite. Beyond that, using Xebony in bow manufacturing preserves the world's fast-dwindling wood supply.
