Description
Yamaha ABS recorders are durable and easy to care for while providing a tone similar to natural wood. Many schools throughout the world insist on Yamaha recorders thanks to their accurate intonation, easy playability, and rich, expressive sound.
Yamaha YRS-24B Recorder
The Yamaha 20 Series recorders are designed to provide a perfect start to anyone's musical education. They offer an ideal amount of air resistance for easy control and feature an accuracy of intonation you would expect to find only on more expensive models. This model features a straight windway which eliminates the resistance found in models with an arched windway. This makes it easy for beginners to create a pure soft tone. In addition to the straight windway, the 20 Series features double holes for low C and C#, low D and D#, and the convenience of durable, maintenance-free ABS resin.

Great product
This is my 31st year as a music educator and I have always been happy with this recorder. It has a nice tone and is very sturdy. I have been given other brands and they do not compare. The only problem that I have had is with students popping out the center of the mouthpiece and then getting it back in crooked. I do wish that West would throw in a cleaner with this recorder. The bags are not great but sufficient.

Better than we expected
This recorder is absolutely awesome! The bag that came with the recorder is a nice addition as well. It has a great sound and my son is enjoying it very much!

Great quality recorder - reasonable price
I am a general music teacher and when I started at a new school last year, the recorders I inherited were mismatched, aged, of poor quality, and in a dreadful state of cleanliness. I needed a solution so that my fourth graders would embrace learning the recorder! I was able to purchase a grade level set of recorders,120 of them, with free shipping and at a reasonable price. The nice thing about having matched recorders is that one aspect of intonation is solved merely by having identical recorders. Having a three-piece recorder was an easy choice and was never a problem as I didn't have any issues with kids taking them apart. The Yamaha brand is endorsed by the vast majority of respected educators in our field and this model is particularly good. Also, if you are using the Recorder Karate program, the end of the recorder and the color allows for a nice display without getting in the way of the quality of the instrument. Looking for a quality recorder? Look no further...

Great Recorder, Flimsy Case
I love these recorders for students! They have a nice sound and they come apart, which allows for adjustments of the bottom hole for small student fingers. The cases they come with, however, are a different story. The drawstring at the top hardly closes and very often comes untied or comes off completely. It is quite annoying.

Excellent beginning recorder
Worth their price- they are in tune, they're easy to play, and they're easy to clean. My only complaint is that the strings on the bags they come in break very easily, making it easy for the recorder to slip out.

an inexpensive alternative
Good start, inexpensive, tone a bit "thin" but expected for the plastic construction. Like the 3 piece, note no cleaning rod was included, so provide for this. If you can wait to save your pennies for a wooden instrument you may want to consider that,.

Excellent quality student recorders
I bought these recorders for 6th grade students, and they have the look, feel, and sound of true instruments, inspiring my students to treat them as such and to seek to play them accordingly.

Great recorder (bag not as great)
I love these recorders. They are durable, in tune, and adjustable for kids with different length fingers. I have used these for years and enjoyed them. Going to conventions, sometimes I am given other brands of recorders as a promotion, but they never compare to the Yamaha recorders. The one thing that sometimes happens is that the casing around the drawstring of the bag gets frayed, as kids put the recorder in and out of the bag. The bag definitely isn't as durable as the instrument, but I still like the recorders enough to put up with the bag.

Good purchase with good service

Yamaha YRS-24B Sop. Recorder
This recorder is a winner! It has wonderful tone, the price is very reasonable and it sounds good with Orff instruments. I highly recommend this soprano recorder.
