Hello,

In my opinion it's actually the best study flute I have ever played. It's a great quality/price ratio and it has SOLDERED TONE HOLES!!! The padding work is perfect and on my request Briccialdi installed on my flute the Pisoni S2 pads (they are surnamed the Italian Straubinger pads). It sounds lovely.I really suggest it, at beginner students... instead of the usual Yamaha 200 Series or Pearl 505. Ot's a strong alternative

However, thank you for your opinion! :)

I also spoke with Briccialdi's Chief Executive Manager, and he told me too about the next titanium+zirconium stopper. It seems to be interesting, but I wonder if, in this way, the headjoint wouldn't be too heavy...

It's very difficult to meet people specialized in built flutes.
I think each stopper in each headjoint produce a different effect. You have always to test.
And...many times happens that you try something..and you like it. But after 2 months you get tired of it...and so you want to change sound again.
Titanium is really really really light!! it's the lightest metal in the world!!
So...the headjoint will not be heavy
