  • I love this flute!
I purchased this flute to replace an older flute I’ve had for years. I’m not a professional musician, but just play for fun. I love my new flute. It came with hole covers, but I was able to pry those off, as I like the feel of the open holes and it gives me more flexibility in playing. This flute has a great tone, and I love the Bflat foot. I haven’t had that on my older flute, and having that one extra note is great. ... show more

  • Great Intermediate Flute. HIGHLY recommended
This flute is perfect for an intermediate player. I bought this for my daughter's 4th year of playing flute. It's absolutely beautiful. The sound is amazing. The craftsmanship is fantastic. Her band director spoke very highly of it and was very happy that we purchased it. The music store nearby was trying to charge me three times more. There are plugs for the open holes. My daughter is slowly taking them out to get used to the open holes. You will definitely get your money's worth and will be very happy. HIGHLY recommended! ... show more

  • The instrument sounds beautiful. After spending months of researching various brands and ...
The flute was for my high school daughter. She uses the flute for marching band and concert band. And will continue to use for the next few years. The instrument sounds beautiful. After spending months of researching various brands and types of flutes this flute was more than worth the money. It looks and sounds sounds great. My daughter has quickly adapted to the open hole keys and the extra length and key. Her very own flute, she loves it. ... show more

  • Great Flute
I bought this flute for my daughter who is in the 10th grade and she absolutely loves it! There was some concern when we received it because you couldn't play the lower or mid F. We took it in to our local repair shop to see if it was something serious and our repairman said it just needed to be adjusted and all new flutes have this problem. It was so simple, he didn't even charge us and it plays perfectly now. We also love the outside case that comes with a shoulder sling and zips up. One thing I wish I had known is it came with 2 sets of plugs for the holes to learn with. I purchased another set and I wish I hadn't now. ... show more

  • ... after much research I chose this flute and I'm glad I did
My previous flute was a closed hole student that was not the highest quality and after playing flute for 5 years I decided it was time for an upgrade and after much research I chose this flute and I'm glad I did. Its sound quality is amazing and the keys are really nice and it feels nice to play. It did take some getting used to because I was used to playing a closed hole flutebut it does come with key plugs which every week I just took one out and not I play with out them. But overall I love this flute so much and I highly recommend it. ... show more
