The long Pfretzschner-model bow: while H.R. Pfretzschner certainly made a majority of his bows in a more ordinary length, a somewhat longer Pretzschner bow is not uncommon, and some original ones still exist. You may have seen Joel Quarrington playing with a bow of this model. Philip Sklar of Toscanini's NBC Orchestra used one of the original long Pfretzschner German bows.
