Yamaha YFL-272 Flute ( standard price 799.- )

The 272 is like the 212 but with open holed keys. Open holes encourage good hand position, and the added E mechanism makes top E easier to play. Going straight from a flute with covered keys to open holes can take some time. Our 272 flutes come with foam pads so that you don’t have to go from 0-100 if you don’t want to. I’d advise cutting down gradually, starting with the pads for index fingers and perhaps leaving the G and D enabling pads on until you get used to it.
The YFL-272 features ring keys, an offset G key and has a Split-E mechanism. This is the standard edition with a silver-plated nickel silver headjoint and lip plate.
