Glasser Bows traces its roots back to 1938, when Leon Glasser began handcrafting wooden bows in his small Bronx, New York workshop. Much has changed since that time: Wood has been replaced by synthetic materials; beginning with fiberglass, then graphite, followed by carbon fibre. Meanwhile, the computer has brought new levels of precision to the bow making process.
Glasser is the only company to manufacture a full range of student and professional bows for all stringed instruments in all sizes, including violin, viola, cello and bass. All Glasser products are made in the USA.
