Hohner 9550 Pearwood 2-Piece Soprano Recorder

Pretty good deal (2010-06-21) : 4/5
I bought this recorder for my 13-year old daughter, who likes to play recorder and wanted something better than the plastic toy recorders. The sound of this Hohner is clearly better than that of the plastic ones, it's easy to play and pretty good-looking. So, i think it's a pretty good deal at about $20.
Great recorder - worth the price! (2010-04-17) : 5/5
My 13-yrs old daughter wanted a better recorder than the cheap plastic one she had for several years. I decided to go with this wood recorder and have not been disappointed. I also bought her a teach yourself recorder book and she has been playing some beautiful music. This was a great purchase!
Very Nice (2010-01-30) : 5/5
I purchased this recorder for my nine year old daughter as a Christmas gift. She did not specify a recorder made of wood, but I thought it was a nice step-up without being too pricey. It is beautiful, sounds nice, and she loves to tell her friends that it came from Germany. It is a beautiful instrument to look at and to hear.br /
Nice recorder, good value. (2009-02-22) : 5/5
This recorder has a nice design, more streamlined than the typical recorder. It plays in tune, and sounds as good as my more expensive plastic recorder. All the notes can be hit, and the smell and taste of the wood add to the experience. It is made in China not Germany but it is handsomely made. Would be excellent for people who want a wood recorder for period reenactments. Well worth the cost, I plan on buying another as a back up.
