Fun to play, intonation not great

Shamblemaths guy 16.08.2023

I bought this after a favourable review on YouTube. It is a lot of fun to play (if you can get your fingers close enough), but the intonation is a weakness. I find the notes to be generally a little sharp (as in, slightly too high-pitched) compared to a 440 Hz-tuning. You can't tune this flute since the head is fixed. I find several grips had to be adjusted compared to the standard baroque chart to get better intonation (at least f#, a# and d2 if memory serves). I doubt there are many who has the garklein as their main instrument, though, and since the cheapest wooden ones are ten times the price, this is a good entry point. Being so squeaky anyway, you'd often use the garklein more as a fun effect or to add some little extra frills to a piece (fast trills and runs, say), in which case the intonation issue might not be so much of a problem.

Good value for money

Chris Isbell 05.01.2025

Note that the fingering is different from larger recorders. Unfortunately, the generic fingering chart supplied with the instrument is largely useless. The fingering chart for the Mollenhauer Kynseker Garklein, which is available to download from their website, works well. (A cut down printout folds nicely to fit in the case provided with the instrument.

The golden logo lasted less than a day. This is a good point because, from a distance, the instrument looks similar to much more expensive grenadilla recorders.

Good for the price

Helen R 30.12.2022

Decent cheap recorder. It's not going to compete with the nice wooden ones, but if you're not sure you need one, it's definitely worth the money to find out.

Fun and surprisingly pleasant

PabloM26 06.02.2026

I am a beginner recorder player and decided to try this garklein. Even though it is very small and high-pitched, the sound is clear and bright without being too sharp.
It responds easily and makes practicing fun. For the price, it is a very good instrument and a nice addition to a recorder collection.
