Paetzold by Kunath contra bass recorder Master 469-AS, -HP-Original-, birch plywood, black, incl. case. Paetzold by Kunath recorders are played with the baroque fingering and are fully keyed. This allows ergonomical and easy playing with excellent sound characteristics. The master models of Paetzold by Kunath instruments are made of birch plywood or solid wood. Birch plywood is a widly underestimated material. It is of high quality and is not comparable with pressboard, with which it is often confused. Birch plywood gets its name because of thin layers of wood that are glued together with the grain direction twisted by 90°. Due to this unique production method, the wood is largely (up to 90%) -blocked- against swelling and cracking. This makes it clearly superior to solid wood in climatically extreme situations.
