There is nothing wrong with that. Frankly some them (such as Eastar's own) sound and play amazingly well. -Far better than the plastic instruments of not too many years ago. But that said, there is nothing like the sound and feel of a well crafted wooden recorder. -Especially when playing the lower notes which can come almost alive with a sonorous bottom and sweet overtones. The hold back for many players -- the thing that has kept them using plastic instruments -- frankly has been the cost. But to my (and I expect many player's) amazement, even that is changing. This Eastar is made from solid maple. You see it and feel it even before you hear it. And it is thing of beauty. And yet the cost is very reasonable. The Eastar ERS-31M comes in a nicely fitted case. A case that also holds a cleaning rod (provided) with a soft head and a small container of sealing and protecting lubricant for the cork used where the three parts of the recorder attach to one-another. Oh, and that brings to mind another nice feature of the Eastar... It is a three piece unit -- and its lower bout rotates allowing for custom placement of the lowest hole allowing for correct placement for those with shorter or longer little fingers. (Once set, however, the two lower parts can remain as one even when the recorder is taken apart for storage.) Tuning and pitch on my example seemed pretty close to "right on." Although that depends in part on the player's technique. And those used to plastic instruments may have to get the feel for this (and other) wooden ones to assure clear notes free of 'lisps' when playing down low. Eventually every serious player starts to feel ready to upgrade to a wooden instrument. Now with the Eastar ERS-31M cost need not be so much a factor. Highly recommended. Review: Wooden recorder - I play the recorder and a few other instruments. I oiled it with sweet almond oil before playing. I recommend googling instructions. for oiling a wooden recorder. It's really nice playing a wood recorder. ## Features - ✨DESIGNED FOR BEGINNERS — Three-piece design for hole position adjustment to different hand shapes and mouthpiece fits well with the mouth.

It’s not longer like baroque one. **Q: Where is this made?** A: With the abysmally bad English, was there any doubt? **Q: Is this easy for a 6 year old beginner to play?** A: I bought it for my daughter, who is just turning 6, and the fingering is a bit long for her. But, she is getting used to the concept by just using the upper finger holes. I would not recommend it for tiny hands if you want them to play correctly from the start. But, it is a nice recorder. **Q: Can anyone point me to a text-only fingering chart for this instrument?** A: Same as Yamaha soprano recorder Baroque style ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ There's Nothing Like the Sound of WOOD! *by G***N on December 14, 2018* Most of us learn to play recorder on inexpensive plastic instruments.

I recommend googling instructions. for oiling a wooden recorder. It's really nice playing a wood recorder. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good bargain. *by O***Y on February 12, 2022* I know when you buy these cheap Chinese instruments you're taking a gamble, and for most people I would recommend a similarly priced Yahama or Aulos plastic recorder to get started on. I had recently purchased a pocket trumpet from Eastar to toy with, not expecting anything out of it, and was pleasantly surprised at how well it played, so I thought I'd take a shot with this recorder as I already have and am planning to learn on a Yamaha alto model. Surprisingly the recorder I received is well tuned. The wood feels fine and the woodworking itself is mostly quality. The inside of the recorder was a little rough with some loose woodchips that were easily brushed out but this implies there isn't a ton of quality control going on as you'd expect, so if you do decide to buy one keep in mind you might have to make a return if you get one from a bad batch. I however have been pleasantly surprised with Eastar both times I've purchased instruments for them. I only bought them for fun and while they of course would not hold up against serious instruments in a performance setting they're good enough for practice and I wouldn't be ashamed to play them casually for other people. All in all it's a very attractive wooden recorder with a nice case that plays very easily and sounds at least as good as plastic recorders in the same price range. Definitely worth the price tag which is virtually nothing for a wooden recorder. Although it has some kind of varnish on it I think it will improve with oiling. ## Frequently Bought Together - Eastar Soprano Recorder Instrument for Kids Adults Beginners, Baroque fingering C Key Maple Wooden Recorder, 3 Piece Recorder With Hard Case, Fingering Chart, Cleaning Kit, ERS-31BM - Essential Elements for Recorder Classroom Method - Student Book 1: Book Only - Easy Recorder Lessons for Kids + Video and Audio: Beginner Recorder for Children and Teens with 60 Songs.
