Why buy a pre-owned instrument?

 

New wooden recorders often  a period of 'blowing in' where the recorder can only be played for short periods of time. Often this process can take many months. The tone generally improves over time but  also there can often be changes in the recorder voicing and tone.  

 

Pre-owned instruments have usually been blown in and can often be more stable than a brand new instrument. Used instruments vary in condition and many require cleaning and  revoicing.

 

All instruments on sale on this site have been serviced and revoiced. Purchasing a pre-owned instrument means you can get an individual instrument at a much reduced cost than purchasing a brand new recorder.
