I can justifiably call this instrument, as well as the same model made of European boxwood, my own development.
Thanks to the grenadilla wood (Dalbergia melanoxylon) it has a powerful and brilliant sound.
It has a present sound and can be played powerfully, and in combination with modern instruments/strings it asserts itself and is easy to hear.
Included in the scope of delivery is a sheep whool lined silk pocket with cleaning rod, Löbner-maintenance kit and playing-in-guide
every recorder is tested thoroughly of its tuning, response and sound
for every here purchased instrument we grant a 2 year warranty starting with purchased date
As of 2.January 2017 Palisander wood (Dalbergia stevensonii), Grenadilla (Dalbergia melanoxylon) and Rosewood (Dalbergia decipularis) falls under
the Washington protection agreement CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna an Flora) of protected woods.
Therefore, the export of Grenadill wood to countries outside of th EU is currently impeded.
Due to the international Cites agreement (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) which applies to all recorders made from grenadilla, palisander and rosewood since 2.1.2017, we calculate a surcharge of 80 Euro per recorder for each order or delivery to non-EU countries.
The application for the documents of exportation of this recorder may take some time. We kindly ask for your patience.
