FINALLY BROKE DOWN AND ORDERED A ?? WAIT FOR IT???
« on: August 12, 2010, 06:24:00 PM »
BW PSAX 62" in Kingwood. I asked the bw guys for darker veneers.
Will be a 6 to 8 week wait. It's gonna be tough.

If anybody has any bows in kingwood I would really appreciate some pics. Might ease the pain of waiting.   :banghead:

Kingwood will make even a Widow look halfway presentable.   :knothead:    :thumbsup:

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I was really pleased when I got my PSAX Kingwood in 2004. Still one of the most beautiful bows I have ever seen. I can't post pictures but I'll try and describe it as best I can. The riser wood goes from black to a honey amber color as do the limbs. The figure in the limbs are half moons that are contained within the limbs and go from tip to limb block. Black Widow did a really great job of matching the laminations. Specs are 60" 49@28. Hope your bow turns out just as good!

Denny the half moons that you described in the limbs are one of the reasons I liked it   :bigsmyl:

6-8 weeks,you can do that standing on your head....My friend waited 24 months for a  ______!And then wasn't sure he liked it.You'll be pleased with your Widow!!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
