Get a good nyckelharpa bow from the start ! It's really important, as a bad bow will give you bad playing habits which will take a lot of time to get rid off later. The bow is crucial : that's where your sound is produced - and you can't produce a good result with bad tools. So don't choose cheap on that point.
