I was at the NAMM show a couple of years ago and saw these colored flutes there, and thought it might be fun to have one, but forgot about it until the other day when I was looking for some flute accessories, and came across this one by accident. I had figured that I might pay $300-$400 - what used to be the going rate for a low-end student flute, but this was for sale for the amazing, almost unbelievable price of $86. I figured that for less than $100 it was worth a try just for the color, but I was a little leery about what kind of quality I was going to get at this rock-bottom price point. I must say, I was very pleasantly surprised - it's actually a good flute. Well made, intonation is good, sound is good. I like it a lot. I'm actually going to use it for some gigs I have coming up. The hot pink will add some bling on stage.
By way of comparison, I have a few other flutes, the best being a top-end Powell that I paid north of $12,000 for. This one is around ⅔ of 1% of the cost of that Powell. And the reality is that in this day of computerized design, CNC machine processes and all the other industrial process improvements of the last few decades, these inexpensive instruments have gotten very good. As far as value for money goes, this is a much better value than the Powell, nice though the Powell is.
If you're looking for an inexpensive instrument for your kid or yourself, this is a really good deal. And the colors are pretty cool. At this price, you can afford to have a few, so as to match your clothing ensemble.
