5 out of 5 “It saved my flute playing!”

Reviewed by Claude, 11 years ago
Verified Purchase

I was about to quit the flute because I was developing this horrible pain in my jaw. I went to see a teacher that realized it was because I was pressing the headjoint too hard against my chin to prevent the flute from turning (when going from middle C# to D). After months of trying to correct this (without success) I bought two of these saddles (one for my left hand and one for my right thumb). I've been playing them for 5 days now and the pain is disappearing, the flute is stable in my hand (no turning), I can really relax everything including wrists and shoulders and best of all, after just a few hours of playing, I got completely used to them and the flute feels more comfortable than ever before.

5 out of 5 “8 year old daughter finds it a great help”

Reviewed by Christopher, 11 years ago

The title says it all really. Our eight year has just started to learn the flute and the teacher recommended the Bo-Pep Finger Saddle to help her position her thumb and fingers and minimise strain, which it does very well.

5 out of 5 “good for a young beginner”

Reviewed by Joanna, 11 years ago

This has really helped my young beginner (aged 7) to hold their flute more securely and with a better hand position, and reassure them that hey will not drop the flute.

3 out of 5 “Flute finger saddle”

Reviewed by Estee, 11 years ago

I bought one of these to help with finger positioning my finger would go numb hoping this might help, yes it seemed to do the trick for a while but I think I need to work on my posture, not bad, can help but mine does move ( I am a beginner)
