I want to thank you for the very nice bow rehair job and the quick turn-around time from Upton. It's much appreciated! The silver (medium grade) hair was the right choice for me. The hair is of very good quality, evenly combed and very tightly wedged. I've tried it out and am very pleased with the action as well as the rich tone I'm getting.
With best regards,

I had my Pfretschner rehaired with Silver hair. I was very impressed with the quality of hair and the quality of workmanship done.
Just to compare, I sent my other bow to a very well known maker for a rehair as well.
As both were the same price, I must say that (Upton Bass) did a superior job! The hair is equal in tension all around, plays well and grips well. Thank You! I'll be sending some more your way soon!!
