Very Satisfied

After three weeks of slowly increasing playing time, this recorder responds well in all registers, with the exception of the high f. The recorder is beautifully finished and has a robust sound. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Disappointing

Unfortunately, I received an instrument in which the higher register was very difficult to play due to 'sloppy' manufacturing. Upon inspection numerous tiny faults were found: slightly conical thumbhole, window out of kilter, fipple badly cut, cork coming away on the joints. All these faults together made the higher notes breathy at best. Surprisingly disappointing considering the reputation of Kung recorders.
