Manufacturer's Description

The WaveLine™ flute is a revolution for the flute family. This unique design allows for a significantly shorter flute body where the headjoint and keys nevertheless remain in line. This design helps to avoid posture problems right from the start and offers the foundation for relaxed playing, higher motivation, longer endurance and more fun for younger players. While its tuning, sound and response are identical to those of a normal-sized flute, its design is perfect for children. The patented WaveLine™ technology headjoint reduces the distance between the lip plate and the keys creating better instrument alignment and easier tone production. Assisted fingering keys are designed for flautists of smaller stature to create a more comfortable hand position. The one piece body to low D reduces overall weight for better balance and playing comfort: 14.65cm shorter than a straight flute. The Jupiter range of flutes are supplied in a moulded hard case with a case bag and cleaning accessories. Recommended for children age 5 and older or players of smaller stature.

Our Description

The Jupiter JFL-700WD flute is a brilliantly well thought through instrument for young children to start their musical journeys with.

The flute makes use of the unique, patented 'Wave-Line' headjoint design, which aims to alleviate problems of balance that some teachers experience when teaching young children using a curved headjoint. The 'Wave-Line' technology allows for a more stable instrument since the curve in the tube brings the weight of the flute down through the instrument rather than on top of or out to the side as with most curved headjoints. This promotes much better posture and improved embouchure development from the very start of the learning process. The distance between the embouchure hole and the keys is reduced, creating a better alignment through the whole of the flute and allowing for easier tone production. Above all, the 'Wave-Line' aids a seamless transition to a standard concert flute.

The flute is designed with a host of features to give children the very best possible start. The keys are fitted with assisted fingering cups which are ergonomically placed to allow more comfortable playing and to encourage good hand position. The newly shaped C# key also promotes a more natural hand position. The flute has a range to low D and a body without trill keys to reduce the weight of the instrument so that children can play for longer without feeling any stresses or strains.

These features make for a flute which would be an excellent choice for children to experience the fun of flute playing!
