Handcrafted to the most exacting standards, this sterling silver flute produces colorful tones of crystalline clarity and warmth. The YFL-677HCT will delight professionals and inspire students alike with its sublime sound and superb playability.

Sterling Silver Construction Resonates Richness

The YFL-677HCT headjoint, body, and footjoint are constructed entirely of sterling silver, prized for producing a broad range of overtones that result in a resonant, multi-dimensional tone. Sterling silver's natural acoustic properties impart a characteristic mellowness and warmth to each note.

Offset G and French-Style Ring Keys Enable Effortless Fingering

An offset G key and French-style ring keys provide a comfortable, ergonomic feel for fast, accurate fingering. The offset G key positioning reduces hand strain, while the French-style ring keys facilitate smooth transitions between notes in the higher registers.

Split E Mechanism and C# Trill Key Enhance Intonation and Dexterity

A split E mechanism separates the third octave E opening into two parts, stabilizing the note and improving intonation. The C# trill key provides rapid alternation between C# and D, enabling trills and other ornaments with ease. These sophisticated key mechanisms give the YFL-677HCT superior tonal stability.

Hand-Cut Straubinger Pads Seal and Center Each Note

Hand-cut Straubinger pads provide an airtight seal for each tone hole. Their domed shape centers the airflow for improved response, better tuning, and a broader range of dynamics. Straubinger pads are considered the finest in the flute world and are standard equipment on the YFL-677HCT.
