Not too much I can say about this bow. I've has it for 15 years and I'd guess it to be between 25-30 yrs old. Could be older. I'm not an expert on wood but I don't think it's pernambuco. It is a nice playing wood bow. I've gotten compliments from legit players on it. Currently has
black hair. Although it sounds better than a CF bow to my ear, I'm selling it to get a CF for outdoor gigs....
