The Yamaha YFL211 flute has been at the top of recommended flute lists for some years. Teachers worldwide recommend and prefer Yamaha flutes, but why?
Well, the overriding thing to understand is that the Yamaha YFL211 was designed to be easy to play, but retain the tonal qualities of the professional models. Which is another important point, Yamaha make professional flutes getting close to £7000 and that’s before you move onto their hand made instruments. So, they know what they are doing!
All Yamaha flutes go through rigorous testing by humans which guarantees consistent high quality. The YFL211 has many of the design features of the 400 series flutes but made to be easy to play for the beginner.
Although machines are used to produce many of the components of the flute, no machine assembles the instrument.
They are so popular we hire more Yamaha YFL 211 flutes than any other!
