The recorder is a woodwind instrument and member of the
family known as fipple flutes or internal duct flutes.
The fipple or block is a wooden plug found at the mouth
of the instrument. This plug constricts the air as the
player blows into the end of the instrument. There are
holes for seven fingers, with the lower one or two
often doubled to facilitate the production of
semi-tones. There is also a hole for the thumb of the
uppermost hand.

The guitar is a musical instrument constructed from
wood, and strung with either nylon or steel strings. It
is a member of the chordophone family of instruments.
The modern guitar was preceded by other similar
instruments including the lute, vihuela, renaissance
guitar and baroque guitar. Over the development of the
guitar many different numbers of strings and were
tried, however today almost universally it uses 6
strings.
The musical tones are produced by the plucking or
strumming of the strings, wherein a vibration is
induced, this vibration is then amplified by the body
of the guitar which acts as a resonance chamber. The
classical guitar is most often played with a
fingerpicking technique.
