This children's flute was invented by Jupiter. The JFL700UD features a curved head, ergonomic finger buttons, and does not have a separate foot joint (the lowest note is "d"). The student flute fits well in small hands and is tuned to C, allowing for the use of any flute method book. Transitioning to a standard flute later on is completely hassle-free. This flute responds very easily and sounds almost like a full-sized one. Suitable for children aged 5 and up! Curved headpiece with Easy Cut embouchure plate, intentionally simplified mechanism without trill keys, no separate foot joint.
