The material used for this instrument impresses with its exceptional sound characteristics. The properties can be characterised as follows, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. This is why the sound of a recorder is perceived and described differently by each person: . The scale The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower scale. For which musical styles is the recorder best suited? Plastic is particularly suitable for recorders that focus on choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible. Who this instrument is aimed at It follows that plastic recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. Another rule of thumb is that a higher-quality instrument generally makes playing easier than a seemingly inexpensive bargain. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of the recorder's sound. In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound.

The F basset recorder with the model number 24-AS-PBK from the "SOLO" model series from the Paetzold by Kunath workshop is a musical tool that is always fun to play. This is largely due to the carefully considered combination of the special model in symbiosis with the sound characteristics of the RESONA plastic material used. This material inspires the instrument with its unique advantages. The features can be characterised as follows: RESONA: Full and clear sound. Warm and carrying. The scale The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower bore. For which musical styles is the recorder best suited? RESONA plastic is predestined for instruments that are used for these styles of music: All styles. Who is the instrument aimed at? This means that recorders made from RESONA plastic are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. An additional general rule of thumb is that a better quality instrument will in most cases make it easier to play together than what at first glance appears to be a cheaper option. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the recorder head where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This sheet of air is the central starting point of the instrument's sound production. At the labium, the vibration that fundamentally generates the flute sound is created from this sheet of air. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the defining characteristics for the instrument's range of musical expression. The windway of the Paetzold by Kunath 24-AS-PBK recorder is shaped as follows: straight, conical.Conical windways accelerate the breath more than cylindrical ones. Windways are extremely complex in their design and many parameters are influenced by each other. Fingering The Paetzold by Kunath 24-AS-PBK recorder is made in the fingering style: Baroque double hole. Construction of the body The construction of the body of a woodwind instrument is fundamentally characterised by the way in which the recorder can be easily assembled and transported during use. This is particularly important when larger instruments or several instruments need to be taken along. Recorder choir directors know how useful good and compact recorder cases are. Provided the instruments can be disassembled into small pieces. Packaging and accessories Recorders in the SOLO model series are supplied as standard with a bag with rucksack function and practical accessories: Cork grease, care instructions, fingering chart Things to know about connecting the instrument parts Paetzold by Kunath instruments are easy to assemble without any special effort. This is due to the special design of the joint between the instrument parts. The double seal developed by Paetzold by Kunath creates a form-fit and airtight connection between the parts, which is characterised by its ease of movement. This makes the F-basset instruments from Paetzold by Kunath among the most ergonomic recorders to assemble and disassemble. Care of the double seal To prevent the double seals from being damaged during storage, red protective caps are included with the F-Basset recorder. You should always usethese protective caps when storing the instrument in its packaging. Then you will be able to enjoy your recorder for many years to come. Double seals require no further care.
