I have never been dissapointed with the products that I have ordered from Stew/Mac. I have ordered a big variety of supplies since I am a luthier who will work on and build most any acoustic instrument that comes my way. The only possible neggative that I have found about the bow hair is that sometimes I feel that there should be a few more strands of hair in each bow hair package. Some people like really thick hair and some like less. So it would be nice to be able to customize the hair as to the customers likes or dislikes. Any questions I have ever had that pertain to items I have bought from Stew/mac have been completely answered and taken care of. I would highly reccomend this company for all your needs but also would say that if you shop around there is also cheaper buys out there but you will have to find out the quality and service to see if they compare to Stew/mac.
If you do not do a lot of re-hairing, these hanks are a good choice. The quality is great and, with the amount pre-sorted and tied off, this is a great time saver.
I just re-haired a handmade bow and your horsehair did the trick. I have used other hair but I found Stew-Mac's combed out faster and easier.
