Special features of the Model IV model series
Model IV goes a few steps further than the lower model series in terms of the design and finish of the windway and labium. Model IV instruments make it even easier for you to find and develop your very own personal sound.
The finely grained patterns of the various types of wood lend the delicately turned exterior a very special elegance.
Model IV excels both in an ensemble and as a solo instrument.
High-quality materials
The 142BU soprano recorder is made from boxwood, which gives the instrument a clear and powerful sound.
The oils used to treat the inner bore and parts of the outer surfaces are free from additives and, where available, of pharmaceutical grade purity.
The clear and warm FEHR sound
The characteristic FEHR sound is achieved through specialised craftsmanship techniques dating back to the founder, Hans Conrad Fehr, and which have been refined and improved by the instrument makers at the FEHR workshop over the decades.
Ergonomic design
It is often the small details that determine whether a recorder is comfortable to play or not. In addition to the position and size of the tone holes, it is the diameter and shape of the foot joint that make it easier for the little finger of the right hand to reach the lowest tone holes.
Working closely with leading recorder players, the shapes have been continuously optimised to ensure comfort and ease of use.
This is particularly beneficial during longer practice sessions or in the run-up to major performances. It helps to prevent strain on the hands and fingers.
