There are a lot of plastic treble recorders on the market ranging in price from around £20 to £50.

The quality varies and some of the lesser known and more recent makes can be somewhat unpredictable.

​

In general the safest bets are still instruments by Yamaha or Aulos. 

​

The cheapest is the Aulos 209 (£20.39 from Amazon) 

​

My favourite at the moment is the Yamaha 402B 'Ecodear' (£30.00 from Yamaha)

It's made of 'environmentally friendly' plant-based plastic, sounds, feels and looks great!
