Second order of this recorder the best plastic recorder I own but I didn't at all like the first version I received
I was impressed with the soprano version of this recorder and ordered this alto model. The first I ordered was flat and the sound wasn't very focused requiring large breath pressure to play at 440. It was loud (organ-like), indelicate and slow to articulation, requiring large breath speeds for the highest notes- I really didn't like the sound much, particularly when playing it up to pitch. The second instrument I ordered a month later was very different, without the problems I had before and I really like the warmth and fullness of it's sound, it is sharper in pitch under the same breath pressure and has a more focused sound. Both instruments weigh the same 212g and they look identical, so it is very peculiar for the variation in performance. The only thing I have noticed is the actual part numbers on the back of the top, middle, and bottom sections are different, and perhaps the instrument has been improved in newer stock.

Beginner friendly
I bought this so I could learn to play the instrument and so far it has a good sound is light enough as not to tire to easily and very manageable in upkeep.
