Great recorder, highly reccommended!

Gunnar Grímsson 20.09.2021

It's a wonderful instrument, sounds very good (see below for my useage), very responsive, light in weight and requires absolutely no maintenance. I wish all my instruments were like that!

I've had one of these instruments on loan for a very long time, close to 20 years but wanted to get my own. After considering getting a wood recorder I read up on the issue and found that in the lower register recorders it hardly matters at all to the sound whether it's wood or plastic. And the plastic lasts 'forever' whereas the wood will not, far from it.

So I got me a new one which is 99% the same as the old one (different thumbguard) and it feels exactly the same and I will be very surprised if it doesn't last longer than I will :)

Disclaimer: I'm an experimental improviser so I don't play conventionally. In fact, most of the time I sing while playing to generate more than one 'pitch' at the same time as well as heavily processing the output of the recorder. I never use the top mouthpiece (white thing with the tube) but blow directly into the top dark brown piece, the 'sound hole'. Just so you know :)

Not for beginners...

First and foremost, this recorder needs a little bit of experience with other recorders, i.e. alto o far better, tenor. People with little hands may have serious problems with this recorder. This being said, the flute is a good one: well balanced, not too heavy, with good intonation. When playing, the keys make a click when used, but I have noticed the same problem in bass recorder far expensive. Don't forget to allow to dry the recorder after played.

The best plastic bass

Recman 16.09.2026

I have recently bought this bass recorder and I absolutely love it. It responds well in all registers with the exception of the high F, but once warmed up it is much better. The sound is inmediate and you can use a decent amount of breath without worrying about the notes cracking. The intonation is as good as on any other bass I have tried. To put things in perspective, I also own a Yamaha bass, which I have never really liked, it is far too sensitive, and a Rondo bass, which I do like, but the bottom F is very tricky. I haven't tried the Sigo bass, but from the videos I have heard, I prefer my Aulos. My only other preferente would be a Kung superior bass, which I have tried and loved too, but it is too expensive for what I need it for.

Ein großartiges Instrument!

m91 07.12.2012

Ich bin total von der Aulos 533B "Symphony" Bass Recorder begeistert. Sie klingt in allen Registern sehr warm und hat einen wirklich vollen Sound. Die Verarbeitung der Mechanik der Klappen ist hervorragend und führt somit zu keinen störenden Nebengeräuschen beim spielen. Allein das Design ist absolut umwerfend.
Ich kann diese Bassblockflöte jedem weiter empfehlen, der ein gut klingendes Instrument braucht und in einem Ensemble mit einem richtigen Hingucker (mit tollen Sound!!!!) auftreten möchte.
