The Yamaha YRS-312 BIII Soprano Recorder is one of the best quality plastic recorders currently available thanks to its full, complex and robust tone quality and excellent high register response. The YRS-312 Soprano Recorder has an imitation woodgrain finish, as well as a slightly more complex and interesting sound than the plain brown plastic Recorders. The Yamaha III Recorder features a newly-redesigned case and improved, richer finish.
