Q : Why is there a "bow" on the L-BOW?

GH Services : BassLab FAQ / Frequently Asked Questions
A : The L-BOW design was the first model that Heiko worked on. He asked himself: How does a body have to be purely theoretically designed, in order to get an optimal sound and to use the resonance areas as well as possible? The L-BOW is the result, and the "bow" is not there just for a futuristic design, but instead for the effect it has on lowering the cut-off frequency of the structure.

But this question is a bit irrelevant once you consider the question, it's like asking "Will I have to shake hands if I choose to live in New York (Paris, London, Santiago, etc)? Of course, it would be very rude to do otherwise. Do not forget it's a greeting, a "hand shake", with no religious significance what-so-ever, so don't be shy. What is a Sensei? Sen means "before", Sei means "life, birth, living or lived". Thus a Sensei is someone who has experienced something before you.

Q: My child is bow legged (or knock-kneed). Should I be  concerned?

Frequently Asked Questions; Childrens Hospital San Diego, SD
A: Probably not.  Children are normally bow-legged when they first begin to stand.  Gradually as the muscles get stronger the bones begin to change and by about 18 months the legs are straight.  By ages 3-3 1/2 children often become knock-kneed.  Again this will usually go away as the child continues to gain strength and walking patterns mature. A: Yes, Children need to experience different types of physical activities throughout every day.

Q How often should my bow be rehaired?

Bow FAQ’s
A It depends on how much you play. For a beginning student, once a year is probably sufficient. If you're playing an hour a day or more, twice a year, in mid- or late spring and in the fall, is fine.

Q Why is it important for a bow to have (almost) full camber?

Bow FAQ’s
A The camber makes the bow function as a spring. The less camber there is, the more you have to tighten the hair to get enough vertical resistance when you place the bow on the string. This extra tension makes it harder to mold and sculpt the sound, and it tends to stretch the hair. When the hair gets too long, the bow feels tip-heavy and handles more clumsily. And you tend to rub the stick against the string; a sure way to degrade your sound and devalue a fine bow.

Q How can I tell if my bow has enough camber?

Bow FAQ’s
A If the hair always seems mushy and floppy, never really tightens into a flat, compact ribbon, it's a good bet your bow has lost some of its camber. Loosen the hair and push the frog as close to the grip as it will go. Place the bow on a clean, absolutely flat surface with the tip and ferrule firmly against the surface.

Q Can a bow lose some of its camber?

Bow FAQ’s
A Yes, and it happens very commonly. The wood, after all, is an organic material, and, like the horsehair, responds to changes in temperature and humidity. It may return little by little to the shape it had before the maker cambered it! Bows can be recambered, but you should be extremely careful whom you choose to do this work. First, there is a serious risk of damage to the bow.

Q My bow seems very unresponsive. How do I know if I need a new bow?

Bow FAQ’s
A Check the stick for warping (leaning out to the right or left when sighted toward the tip) and insufficient camber. Both conditions can seriously affect your bow's playability and usually can be corrected at a reasonable price compared to the cost of a new bow. Check for warping when the hair is even on both sides of the hair ribbon.

Q What should I look out for when I need to get my bow rehaired?

Bow FAQ’s
A Ask to see a bow the repair person you are considering has just rehaired: Is the bow properly cleaned and polished? Is the ribbon of hair straight, or are there obvious crossover hairs? Is the tension equal on both sides of the ribbon (good) or slightly more on the playing edge (even better)? When you look through the hair toward a light, does the hair look evenly distributed across the ribbon (good) or slightly thicker at the playing edge (better)? Does the wedge at the frog spread the ribbon.

Aikido of San Jose - FAQ
The bow in aikido reflects the Japanese culture in which aikido was created. Retaining cultural influences enriches the experience of learning an art that came from that culture, so at Aikido of San Jose we have chosen to continue the tradition of bowing. If you watch the movie "Above the Law" with Steven Seagal, in the very first part of the movie he does the four claps, and that's the most formal form of bowing you can have.
