Buying a proessional flute
Professional / Hand Made Flute
This is the voice of your artistic expression.
One might expect to spend $3000.00 to “the sky is the limit” for a professional or handmade flute. While there are some cost savings associated with buying a used flute, there is also a certain amount of risk involved. A used flute will most likely need to be adjusted and balanced for your personal touch.
Features of a Professional / Hand Made Flute
Body tube
The body tube may be made of varying grades of silver, gold, fused precious metals, and platinum. You also have the option of choosing the “wall” thickness of the body tube. The different materials and construction provide different tonal characteristics.
Toneholes
Toneholes may be “"drawn" and "rolled" ” from the body tube, or they can be soldered on. There is much debate as to the difference in sound between the two. Take the factory tour, and watch the video.
Keys
Pointed keys are standard on all non-touch keys. This method of manufacturing requires more skill and resources. The pointed or French arms focus the finger pressure directly on the center of the pad. Handmade flute do not usually have adjusting screws.
Scale and Pitch
Flutes are available today with several “Scale” and “Pitch” options. The scale is the relationship of toneholes to each other, the size of the various toneholes, and how they relate to the geometry of the headjoint. Some examples of scale are Bennett, and Cooper.
The pitch is the frequency at which the instrument is designed to play. The International standard is “A 442”.

Case
Finally, a sturdy case that fits the contour of the flute is essential to ensure that your new companion remains safe and snug. Always store your swab and wiping cloth in an external “case cover”. This will ensure extra lint and moisture will not accumulate in and on your flute. Case covers are often padded for that “extra” level of security just in “case”.
