Ribbed key post construction results in greater body strength and accurate key action and a split E mechanism produces a clearer and more responsive high E. The YPC-81 additionally features undercut tone holes, which improves intonation and response due to smoother airflow throughout the instrument. Double bladder pads provide long life and better seating.

This beautiful instrument is entirely handcrafted by the expert piccolo makers at Yamaha. Sought after by orchestral players worldwide, this instrument would be a wonderful addition to any flute section.
