I think that was a darker batch of olive than they are using now but it has darkened over time. It is about 15 years since I bought it. If you like that colour, keep an eye out for second-hand models perhaps 🙂
You’re Back‼️👍 It’s been a while since your last video..🤔 (I hope you’re feeling well 😬🤞) I think your performance was great..👏 Personally, I liked the Superio model. The color looks nice and the sound was more rich..🤗 The other model sounded a bit “leaky”….(I’m not sure if that’s a correct description..??). Thanks again for your videos‼️
Yes, I am good thank you. Yes, I agree the superio has a richer sound with a more solid core to the sound and the studio is more breathy. I'm still very impressed wth it for the price though.
Thanks for the video! My main recorder is a Kung Studio tenor in pear wood, and at some point I'm planning on getting a Kung Superio tenor, so this was a very interesting comparison for me. On my Studio, I notice that the low D sharp and C sharp are rather weak notes. Sounds like there's a fuller sound down low on the Superio.
I have the Superio and it definitely has good volume on the low C, C#, and D. D# seems rather quiet, but I haven't finished playing mine in yet; hoping it'll get better.
I really like the studio in its own right, but yes, the Superio is definitely more focused in sound and a keyed tenor will have stronger low notes than a Keyless one.
@@brandonpieplow9207 All recorders improve with playing in but low D# is a half holed note, perhaps it will have its limitations. There is a key for low D# on the Kung superio great bass, easy for clarinet players to get to grips with as in the same place as the D# key on clarinet.
I think the Superio has a fuller tone but that is a biased opinion. I have a Superio tenor in pear wood and love the thing to death. It is my main go to recorder. Thank you for the comparison!
I'm surprised by how different these two tenors sound. I love the sound of the Kung Superio especially on the lower notes - think I'd better learn the Tenor!
Adding to the other comments. It's really good to see you again.....keep posting your videos 😺
Thank you 🙂
How long does it take for your olivewood superior to darken to such gorgeous colour?

Not a biased opinion, the Superio is fuller. It has a more solid core to the sound and beautiful overtones.
Very beautiful recorders! Do the keys in the superio take away the flexibility to play the lowest notes?
The Kung keys I find very ergonomic. Easy to slur upwards C ---> C# but you would be hard pressed to slur downwards from low C# to low C
@@arwenacoustic795 Ok, thank you

Tenor...followed by C bass....😄
