The key difference for this model is the solid silver head. Now with pointed key arms! Yamaha took all the lessons learnt through the process of developing and perfecting their Handmade models and incorporated it into the design of their intermediate and standard flutes. Featuring a solid silver headjoint, these are flutes that will help beginners rapidly improve, while offering more advanced players excellent response and tonal qualities.
CY Headjoint
Featuring a double flare taper and a unique embouchure hole undercut design for excellent response and a warm rich tone, the CY headjoint helps beginners quickly learn to produce a beautiful sound. More advanced players will appreciate its even, quick response in all registers.
Keys
All key shapes and placement have been ergonomically designed for a comfortable, natural-feeling performance. The keys are hand-assembled and adjusted for perfect balance and 'touch.'
Pointed Key Arms
A#, F# and other non-fingered keys feature pointed key arms. This beautiful key design is inspired by traditional European style.
Adjustment Screws
Yamaha's unique screw resistance inserts allow smooth adjustments while preventing gradual loosing of the screws. For easier access, the screw positioning has been changed.
Alignment Marks
Footjoint alignment marks facilitate proper fitting by young players.
Curved Headjoint (FHJ-200U)
An optional curved headjoint makes flutes easier for young children to hold and play. It comes with a convenient carrying case which holds both headjoint and flute case.
