With a small own mass and size, these homuses of R. Gotovtsev, thanks to a rather heavy reed, are distinguished by relatively strong vibrations, smoothed and unhurried. The frequency range of different specimens extends from low to medium, the attenuation time of the sound is quite large and this process, like the growth of sound, proceeds along a beautiful trajectory. The responsiveness and obedience of the instruments are good, but the volume is not the greatest; the maximum reaction is caused by strong deep breathing. Also in the timbre can appear extra sounds. In general, a powerful instrument is a kind of broad-shouldered short. See. equally Ellasin's homuses (completely circumcised) and the lighter and more open, Komissarov's bass.
