I'm looking into buying a Guo grenaditte head joint, but I need to know the exact tenon size of the pearl elegante "forza" head joint so I can buy the correct one. Does anyone know the size? Thanks!!

Does anyone know the head joint tenon size for the pearl elegante line of flutes? I want to buy the GUO grenaditte head joint, but I don't know which tenon size to buy. Any help?? Thanks!!

When I played around with the aurumite flute with the gold on the outside versus the sister flute I full sterling, I did notice that the air unite had an ever-so-slightly warmer sound. But I'm not sure of this is worth the extra money for it. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry if there was misinformation about the case type. The answer I put on was simply the same information given when I spoke with Gareth McLearnon(Pearl Flutes Artist) about it. He may not have known, considering he plays a 14K gold Maesta. In any case, the quantz line does utilize a rubber or ...

The major difference is the headjoint cut, as the elegante has a forza headjoint and the quantz is the standard. I personally play the pearl elegante and when trying them out I found that there was a major difference in the sound quality. The elegante also has a double-Sprung Bb key and has cork key...

Since this collection is published by yamaha music media, has anyone considered contacting yamaha directly? I'm going to go ahead and do it and tell you my results.

I have worked and worked and worked to try and understand the website the link takes me to. I use amazon.us often but this is just confusing. I want the piece oh so badly, but it's toying with my patience just too much.

Male(as name implies). Only one at school but I have plenty of male flute friends. Everyone always stares at the marching competitions when I (a 6' 1" 245lb male) walk past them with my piccolo in hand. I hate, ABSOLUTELY HATE, to brag. But I am by far and large the best player of the flute at my hi...

My flute (which is a Pearl Elegante 795 RB-CD) is named Apollo, after the Greek god of Music. This is due to its amazing sound. My piccolo needs a mane though (any suggestions?). My Alto's name is Martin, simply because that is the manufacturer.

I have played Debussy's infamous piece for flute alone, "Syrinx" many times at many different events/venues. I have based my performance of thus extraordinary piece on the video of Emmanuel Pahud playing on YouTube. Dies anyone have suggestions on specific stylings or Tweaks that you would like to d...
