ANNgel Bow Guide System

Have you ever struggled to teach a student how to bow straight without wandering over onto the fingerboard? Look no further for the ultimate practical solution! Envisioned by NY violist Ann Roggen and created by Marcel Saint-Cyr, the ANNgel Bow Guide System naturally prevents the bow from straying from its ideal contact point parallel to the bridge. Simple to clip on to the end of the fingerboard between the two middle strings, the ABGS can be removed once the student has mastered the feel of the contact point in all parts of the bow. Available for violin and viola - a useful addition to any studio!

Attaching the mutes on the instruments

In response to the many requests for a quick and secure system of attaching violin and viola mutes, a new anchor system has been devised. The small leather anchor fits snugly between the middle strings behind the bridge, with the mute resting firmly on top of it. Each anchor is custom-made to fit the mute which it accompanies, ensuring a perfect contact. For this reason, these anchors are only sold along with an accompanying mute order.

Practice mutes

By popular demand, there is now a model available for leather practice mutes with the same exceptional velvety sound which characterizes the standard mute. Created to make practicing a pleasure, even in hotel rooms!
