The origins of Knobloch Strings begins with Jiri Knobloch, a guitarist, luthier, artist and creator of the first Knobloch Actives strings in Germany in 1971. His passion for the guitar and desire to find the perfect sound led him to create Knobloch Actives, high quality strings designed for professional guitarists.
In 2009 Gilles Baudu, a guitarist with the same passion as Jiri, decided to restart the business, move it to the province of Girona (Spain) and put into practice the knowledge he gained from the Maestro. From that moment on, the strings have been manufactured in Spain and distributed worldwide.
The HorACE bow guide helps to keep a student’s bow straight and at the proper position. It allows the strings to vibrate and provides unimpeded access to all of the strings. These are a wonderful accessory to train beginners learn to use the bow, or for those who struggle to keep their bow aligned across the strings.
Available in 2 sizes for violin/viola, and 2 sizes for cello.
