Hohner Club III BS, and this CLUB III BS has registers and I really LOVE it!;D So with the sound varying as a flute and clarinet and anothers (total 4 registers) so I could pass ahead this Viktoria, cause it doesn't have the registers, just ONE type of sound.

This model more with the squares corners, like mine in the 1st link here above, and that other model more rounder. Like here:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvwDKHUXkFMI believe, (just believe cause I'm not totally sure, but I think this rounder model came before and this model squarer, came as an update probably.
(Cause also, in all the videos an photos, the Viktoria Squarer models always seems older and less conserver, as in the videos and photos of the squarer Viktoria, some of these, sometimes it seems simply brand new, as mine Viktoria model, it is shinning as brand new). But in both models, I always find the sound amazing and full of pressure and volume.
