Did your ex experiment with different bows also? A friend who plays professionally says often it is the bow that can make a crucial difference in sound, and that you have to match the bow with the instrument and the personality: just like a stereo system, right!?I do recall in the past, Yamaha had borrowed several well known instruments, and x-rayed and measured them to the best of their capability, in an attempt to recreate the sound.
