Yamaha YFL-482 Intermediate Flute
If you are looking to upgrade from your student model flute or are looking for a quality instrument with a great sound, then the Yamaha YFL-482 Intermediate Flute is an excellent choice.
The YFL482 is the French model from Yamaha that comes with open hole keys which are preferred by advanced players to enable them to control the tone of their instrument. This model also comes with in line key systems which are preferred by advancing musicians as the traditional style of flutes. Key plugs are included with intermediate open hole flutes until the student is ready to play their instrument with open holes.
The 400 series from Yamaha has a sterling silver headjoint, body, and foot joint. The keys are made of nickel-silver.
Other available options are the B footjoint which allows the player to play a half step lower than the standard C Flute and has a darker tonal quality.
Another option on top of the B footjoint is a gold lip plate for the flutist who has an allergic reaction to silver.
