Gold and rhodium are precious metals which don’t tarnish. We are doing real high quality plating in a thickness that should last for many years depending on the elements the flute is exposed to. The exact thickness in microns will be listed once we have done a few. This is a new feature.
let us know about your preference. High tension means you like to play strong, light means you are a gentle player. Most will want to stay in the middle which is also the best for the mechanism.
Return and warranty protection: Our flutes are shipped in a perfectly playable condition free of mechanical flaws, and leaks. If for some reason the flute goes out of adjustment, you can use the adjustment screws yourself, or bring it to your technician. All flutes go out of adjustment, no matter how expensive. Our warranty and return are not โ€œno questions askedโ€ and if there is a serious problem that we missed, we will repair it, or you can send it back. If you are not able to adjust it, we will assign a flute technician to repair it. Shipping to and from the local service person is not included. This policy is what allows us to offer ridiculously low prices, and we hope you appreciate that.

We are switching to German ebonite and the current wait time is 60 days for the readily available colors in the slideshow below, however the ebonite rods still have to come from Germany, and it takes time for the flute to be made after that as well. Many other colors to chose from if this is not enough, but the wait time could be over 90 days.

Ebonite is a natural material made from rubber under high pressure to get similar qualities like ebony wood. Acoustic properties are actually better than natural ebony. It responds quicker, and resonates better. Boris Magnetic pads, patented system superior to all other pads on the market.

    This ebonite flute has become one of my favorites. Members of the orchestra do not know it is ebonite until they see it. I sound like myself. Though I normally play C foot, this flute goes down to B and is the only โ€œB footโ€ which gives me no difficulty. The construction and feel of the mechanism is solid and secure; Boris magnetic pads allow for good response. II had an issue once with the adjustment, sent it to Boris and the flute returned better than ever. It IS heavier than one might be used to but Iโ€™ve not tried the new German ebonite. Again: this flute holds its own against an orchestra.
