Hello. I am an old Led Zeppelin collector and I can give you the specifications for one type of bow Jimmy used. It is an H. Siegler full size 29" violin bow, unbleached horsehair, and solid Brazillian wood. It has a Parisian eye (mother of pearl) in the frog (handle). This bow was used at some point after the '77 tour as it also has been fitted with fiber optic cables for the neon effect Jimmy used. Jimmy may have used various other types and certianlly used bows without the fiber optic cables. This is one that was used by Jimmy as it came directly from the road tech from LaserMedia that went out on tour with Zeppelin. Jimmy had his bows restrung along the tour trail and from rumor he bought a run of defective bows at a very good deal. I hope this helps and rock on!
