Edition: Black Nugget
General information
The recorder from the MASTER series with the model designation: 449-EBN built by Paetzold by Kunath is a companion that always makes making music fun.
This characteristic is due to the clever combination of the unique model design with the tone colours of the birch plywood material used.
This material makes the instrument stand out with its special advantages. The characteristics can be roughly summarised as follows, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. For this reason, the details of the typical material sound of recorders are perceived and described differently by each person: Soft, warm.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical and wider. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower inner bore.
For which musical styles is the recorder best suited?
Birch plywood is particularly suitable for recorders that are used in ensembles, for choral playing and as a solo instrument.
Who is this recorder aimed at?
This means that birch plywood recorders are particularly suitable for beginners. A noteworthy rule of thumb is that a high-quality instrument naturally makes music-making more enjoyable than an inexpensive one.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of a recorder's sound.
At the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the defining principles
for the musical formability of the achievable sounds of the recorder. The 449-EBN instrument from Paetzold by Kunath has a windway that is straight and conical in shape.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are extremely complex in their design and many parameters influence each other.
Fingering
The Paetzold by Kunath MASTER 449-EBN model is available in the following fingering: Baroque fingering.
Keys
It is not always possible to place tone holes in places in the body that are easy to play with the hands. For tuning reasons, some tone holes on bass instruments in particular are located in positions that are not ergonomically accessible. On these instruments, the instrument maker installs key mechanisms that make playing considerably easier or even possible in the first place.
The 449-EBN instrument has the following keys: Paetzold full folding. This allows the recorder to be played easily even by players with smaller hands.
This type of key mechanism is unique and legally protected. In Korea and Taiwan in particular, these instruments are often used in schools by internationally renowned teachers for adolescent players.
But even alto players with small hands no longer want to miss out on the advantages of the Paetzold full key mechanism once they have used it.
Multi-piece construction
The construction of a recorder has a strong influence on the way in which the woodwind instrument can be used on a daily basis, on the one hand to ensure uncomplicated handling in terms of ease of grip and on the other hand to ensure comfortable transport. This is particularly important when larger instruments or several instruments are to be taken along.
Experienced ensemble players can tell you a thing or two about this.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied as standard with an optional bag/case and matching accessories: grease tin, fingering chart, care instructions
Hygiene tips
If the recorder is shared, it is advisable to clean the beak area repeatedly to prevent the transmission of diseases.
The care product Flautisept has proven effective for this purpose. Flautisept is available in our collection.

General information
The recorder from the MASTER series with the model designation: 469DBK built by Paetzold by Kunath is a musical tool that makes music fun both in the classroom and on stage.
The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the masterful combination of the pioneering construction concept with the advantages of the birch plywood material used.
This material makes a pleasant impression on the instrument thanks to its exceptional advantages. The special features can best be described in the following words, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. For this reason, the details of the typical material sound of recorders are perceived and described slightly differently by each person: Ensemble-capable.
The scale
The inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical and wider. 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 inner bore.
What styles of music can the recorder be used for?
Birch plywood is predestined for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as solo instruments.
Who is the instrument aimed at?
The above facts show that birch plywood recorders are particularly suitable for beginners. It is also a general rule that a more sophisticated instrument generally makes playing easier than a seemingly inexpensive bargain.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus of a recorder's sound production.
In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
extremely relevant
for the response and sound of the recorder. The 469DBK instrument from Paetzold by Kunath has a windway that is straight and conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are of course extremely complex in their geometric shape and many parameters play together.

It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places in the body that are comfortable and easy to reach with the hands. Particularly on larger recorders, tone holes are located in positions that are impossible to reach for reasons relating to speech. These instruments are fitted with mechanisms that make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
The 469DBK instrument has the following keys: . This makes it easy to play, even for players with smaller hands.
The shape of the keys is unique and legally protected. Especially in Korea and Taiwan, these instruments are often used in recorder orchestras by well-known teachers for adolescent players.
But even adult players with a reduced grip range of the hands no longer want to do without the advantages once they have got to know them.
Construction of the body
The number of parts in a musical instrument has a strong influence on the way in which the recorder can be easily assembled and transported during daily use. A point that becomes particularly important when larger or multiple instruments are taken along.
Recorder choir leaders know how useful good and compact recorder transport packaging is. Provided the instruments can be easily disassembled.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied as standard with an optional bag/case and useful accessories: grease tin, fingering chart, care instructions

Great bass recorder "Direct-Blow", Master, natural birch plywood, Paetzold by Kunath
€4,140.00*
surface treatment:
Natural colours
General information
The instrument from the MASTER model series with the model number: 459DB manufactured by Paetzold by Kunath is a recorder that is a joy to play both in the classroom and on stage.
This special feature is largely due to the carefully considered combination of the pioneering construction concept with the tone colours of the birch plywood material used.
The unique sound characteristics of this instrument are strikingly pleasing. The characteristics can be summarised as follows: Ensemble-capable.
The scale
The inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical and wider. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower inner bore.
For which musical styles is the recorder best suited?
Birch plywood is ideal for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as a solo instrument.
Who is this recorder aimed at?
This means that instruments made of birch plywood are particularly suitable for beginners. A second rule is that a higher quality instrument is generally more pleasant to play than a poor quality one.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus of the recorder's sound.
In interaction with the labium, the vibration that generates the flute sound is created from this air blade. The shape of the windway is therefore
extremely relevant
for the response and sound of the instrument. The model 459DB from Paetzold by Kunath has a windway that is straight and conical in shape.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air more than cylindrical ones. Windways are very complex in their design and many parameters influence each other.
Fingering
The Paetzold by Kunath MASTER 459DB instrument is available in the following fingering: Baroque fingering.
Keys
It is not always possible to place the tone holes in places in the body that are easy to reach with the fingers. Especially on larger instruments, some tone holes are located in positions that are impossible to reach for tuning reasons. On such instruments, the instrument maker adds key mechanisms that make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
The 459DB instrument has the following keys: Paetzold full folding. This makes it easy to play even for players with smaller hands.
The shape of the keys is unique and legally protected. Especially in Taiwan and Korea, these instruments are often used in recorder orchestras by well-known teachers for adolescent players.
But alto players with small hands also appreciate the advantages of the Paetzold full-flap recorder.
Construction of the body
The number of individual parts of an instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder can be easily assembled and safely transported during daily use. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Leaders of large playing groups will agree with us.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied as standard with an optional bag/case and the following accessories: grease tin, fingering chart, care instructions
Hygiene tips
If the recorder is lent out again and again, it is advisable to sterilise the windway at regular intervals for your own protection.
In these cases, Flautisept has proved its worth. Flautisept is available in our collection.
