## Questions & Answers

**Q: has anyone compared this with the Yamaha YRS24B series ivory-colored models? Is this exactly the same, or different in feel and tone?**
A: I teach a recorder class for high school students and we have about 20 models of the ivory recorders and about 15 of the colorful 20BG recorders.  For whatever reason, the coloful models do seem to speak a little bit more easily, but both set the bar fairly high for plastic recorders-- way better than any of the other models we've purchased, including the more expensive brown and beige 302B Yamaha model (which looks great, but is quiet and does not hit the low notes as easily as this model.)

**Q: the description states it is made in the US, but what does the packaging say?**
A: actually, on the bottom side, opposite of the first double tone hole, in tiny embossed letters it states "MADE IN INDONESIA". You might need a magnifying glass to see it clearly.

**Q: does it come with case**
A: It comes with a cloth draw string bag.

**Q: Where is this made?**
A: The instrument is made in Indonesia and the little carrying bag case is made in India. Yamaha is a very durable brand.

*by P***? on April 13, 2016*

TO AMAZON I'M NEED TO STOP WRITING NOW. I JUST HOPE THAT I WILL BE IN A DAY OR TWO. I'M SICK NOW - P J LANCELOTTIHI TO ALL - MY REVIEW IS ABOUT RECORDERS. TO START OUT, I BOUGHT 2 OF THE . Yamaha YRS-23Y Soprano Recorder, Key of C .. THESE ARE PERFECT, AT THE PRICE AND QUALITY, JUST FOR STARTERS. I'M SO HAPPY ABOUT GETTING THEM. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT ALL THE MUSIC STORES IN MY AREA DOESN'T SELL THEM. THEN, AFTER HEARING THIS, HE MUST BE NOT SELLING THEM BECAUSE OF GREAT PRICES WE GET AT AMAZON. SINCE AMAZON HAD MY 2 RECORDERS WERE DELIVERED, TO MY FRONT DOOR, ON A SUNDAY!NOW, I WANT TO SAY MORE ABOUT MY OWN, PERSONAL RECORDERS. THAT WAS IN THE 1970'S, AND I WAS A NUN, LIVING IN A CATHOLIC MONASTERY. THERE WERE PLACES WHERE OTHERS WOULD TO PLAY. SOMEONE SAID IT WAS "CHAMBER MUSIC," SO I WAS ABLE TO BUY MY FIRST RECORDER. IT WAS MADE BY MOECK. IN THOSE DAYS THE PRICE OF THINGS WERE VERY DIFFERENT. I KNEW I WANTED THE MOECK, SO I WENT BACK TO THAT MUSIC STORE AND I WAS ABLE TO BUY IT. I DON'T REMEMBER THE PRICES OF THE MOECK AND TRADE IN, BUT I DO REMEMBER THAT IT COST $1,000. BUT FOR ME TO SPEND THAT

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Starter Recorder
*by J***. on July 22, 2025*

This Yamaha recorder has a clean, soft tone and is really easy to play, even for a complete beginner. It feels sturdy and not cheap like some other plastic models. Nice that it comes with a cloth case too.
