Hi guys,
Can you plz help me... coz I`m very confused in this time!!!
I`m 14 years old and I`m playing the flute for 5 years.
In this period My parents are planning me to buy a new flute
As for now I have the Gemeinhardth 2sp.
My teacher recently told me that he prefare for me to buy a plated good one that can be use until my diploma, so it will not cost too much... and for another reason that I am still a teenager and he told me that if one day I want to be a professional flutist so that is the time for me to buy a silver one.
But the decision is still mine...What do you think of?? Do you have any opinion???
Plz reply ASAP Thanks!
(Hope you understand my english!)

Hey,
Few words of advice:
Selmers are excellent flutes. But whatever you do don`t buy
Jupiter brand. They break really easily.
Also if the end of your flute starts to fall off don`t use a rubber band to keep the end on. I`ve seen many flute players do this. And the rubber band eats at the pads.
Also I don`t know if you plauy opened hole or closed, I play closed, but I hear that open hole flutes have a much better sound.
Other than that I don`t really know...but keep playing.
