The Yamaha YFL-221 concert flute is the predecessor of YFL-222 ($1.2k) and is made of nickel silver with a silver plated C foot, body and headjoint. Yamaha flutes are known to be reliable and durable and perfect for students who are serious about music. This flute was professionally overhauled, which includes: - fully disassembling and polishing - pads readjusted and shimmed to seal properly - brand new head joint cork replaced - professionally play tested. Because this was a used flute, it has a couple dings, scratches and blemishes. Please look at the pictures carefully before purchasing. Comes as is. Cleaning rod included.
