Experience Excellence with the YFL-697H Professional Flute In-line G
This new model inherits the outstanding qualities of Yamaha's top-of-the-line handmade flutes. It offers a wide range of tonal nuances and dynamics, along with exceptional craftsmanship, consistency, precision, and visual beauty. According to Brian Petterson, the marketing manager at Yamaha Winds, Yamaha Corporation of America, "Flutists seek instruments that meet their specific needs, and expanding our range of professional flutes offers a wider selection of features to cater to the discerning player's technique. These flutes are of the highest quality and produce a beautiful, expressive tone that will inspire flutists to excel."
- Combination of Brilliance and Mellow Timbres: The YFL-697H model combines the brilliance of nickel silver with the mellow timbres of sterling silver.
- Redesigned Mechanism: The instrument features a redesigned mechanism that includes a split E key, which is now available as an option on all Yamaha professional flutes.
- Hand-finished Headjoint: All models come with a beautifully hand-finished sterling silver headjoint based on the Handmade Flute’s Type A design. It offers a wider expressive range, easier response, and excellent balance across the instrument’s entire range.
- Straubinger Phoenix™ Pads: The 600 series flutes feature Straubinger Phoenix™ Pads, which provide a precise seal, quick response, wide dynamic range, and longer life in adjustment. They allow for a softer touch while maintaining superior performance.
- 0.43mm Wall Thickness: The 600 series flutes have a standard wall thickness of 0.43mm, which, combined with the hand-finished headjoint and Straubinger Phoenix™ Pads, offers excellent balance and a warm, beautiful sound.
- Pinless Left-hand Key System: The flute utilizes the “pinless left-hand key system” for improved high F-F# key operation and easier maintenance.
- Acoustic Annealing: The headjoint, body, and footjoint undergo an annealing process that allows the instrument to vibrate more freely, providing optimal response and resonance.
- Exquisite Key Design: The keys are hand-assembled, balanced, and ergonomically placed for effortless and natural performance. Non-fingered keys feature pointed key arms inspired by traditional European styling.
- Compact Case: The flute comes with a compact case that provides ease of transport and excellent protection.
