I am the original owner of this beautiful instrument and I have taken really good care of it. I purchased it in 2012 from Lazar's Early Music new. I comes with the case (note the stains from oil), and some Kung cork grease. The pads are near perfect with only some minor signs of use. I am selling because I have not played it in several years preferring to concentrate on my Japanese shakuhachi flute. The Superio line is Kung's top of the line instrument. This recorder is distinguished by a brilliant
high register (can be played to G''', giving a range of two-and-a-half
octaves), but it still has a wonderful depth: strong and with a full
sound, even on the bottom notes. Thanks to its large range and rich
sound, it can even play select flute literature. Their rich, full sound and dynamic playing makes SUPERIO recorders a
popular choice, in particular among professional musicians and soloists.
The curved windway carefully and precisely carved by master craftsmen
produces a distinctive sound. The Bass, Greatbass, and Subbass recorders have the most sonorous,
round, and clear sound. In addition to use in professional soloist
playing, they are extremely popular in ensembles. In spite of their
dimensions, the large recorders can be played comfortably while sitting
or standing. Their agility in the high and low registers alike is
remarkable.Here is a sample link of this model being played... https://kuengblockfloetenallink-live-165f3150eb-70db399.divio-media.com/filer_public/fd/3b/fd3b43c8-44b5-4858-ab69-c4e95e2af614/10_glass.mp3 characteristics details key c' pitch a' = 442 blowing pressure high fingering wide despite keys, baroque fingering length 64.8 cm weight ~450 g outer shape high baroque block height high bore narrow window short conditioning sealed with paraffin, surface and inner bore oiled, stained pear is painted matte Wood type of wood model sound pearwood 2501 warm, rich sound pearwood, stained 2511 warm, rich sound cherry 2503 elegant, clear olive 2509 elegant, clear, light
