Features

• Based on the Handmade Flute’s Type A design, which offers a wider expressive range, the hand-finished headjoint on Yamaha professional flutes additionally offers easier response and excellent balance over the instrument’s entire range
• Straubinger Phoenix™ Pads allow the player to play with a softer touch while providing a more precise and consistent seal, superior response, wide dynamic range and longer life in regards to adjustment
• 0.43mm wall thickness is now a standard feature on 600 and 700 series flutes—combined with the new hand-finished headjoint and the Straubinger Phoenix™ Pads, the increased wall thickness provides excellent balance, and a warm, beautiful sound
• Utilizes the “pinless left-hand key system,” the ideal configuration for handmade flutes. This improves high F-F# key operation, and because there are no pins, maintenance is easier
• The headjoint, body and footjoint are heat treated through an annealing process that allows the instrument to vibrate more freely, providing optimal response and beautiful resonance
• Keys are hand-assembled and meticulously balanced for a perfect touch
• Key shapes have been so exquisitely designed and ergonomically placed that the flute will almost ‘disappear’ in your hands
• A#, F# and other non-fingered keys feature pointed key arms, similar to those found on Handmade Flutes

Magnificent professional flute.
