Yamaha flutes are well known for their excellent student models. The 311 model has a solid Sterling Silver (.925) head piece and a silver plated body and mechanism. The YFL311 is the best-selling intermediate flute on the market. - Closed holes - Offset G key - Split E mechanism - C footjoint
This flute has served me well for the past 18 years, seeing me from Grade 5 to Grade 8 (which I passed with Distinction).
The flute is not perfect - it has knocks and dents, and the silver plating has become worn in some places as one would expect. These are cosmetic defects only, the flute still makes a lovely sound. The flute has recently been fully serviced (at a cost of £93) and so is in perfect working order. Includes hard case plus soft outer carrying case. Potential purchasers are welcome to audition the instrument.
