Hand-Finished Headjoint

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.

Acoustic Annealing

The headjoint, body and footjoint of all professional flutes are heat treated through Yamaha's proprietary acoustic annealing process that allows the instrument to vibrate more freely, providing optimal response and beautiful resonance.

Ergonomic Key Design

The keys are hand-assembled and meticulously balanced for a perfect touch, and the key shapes have been so exquisitely designed and ergonomically placed that the flute will almost ‘disappear’ in your hands. Performances will feel effortless and natural.

Pointed Key Arms

A#, F# and other non-fingered keys feature pointed key arms, similar to those found on Handmade Flutes. Their beautiful designs are inspired by traditional European styling.

Case & Cover

The compact case provides ease of transport and excellent protection from damage. All Yamaha professional flutes come with an elegantly designed case cover.
