Defo the best inovation on flute making in a long time. for those of you who get repetitive strain, tendonitis, carpal or just hand fatigue this will greatly help. I cant imagine playing without it now. Although not everyone likes the feel of the thumb movement.

No, I wish Powell would come out with one because that is the only brand of flute I will play on for my main flute. I just don`t care for the Japanese flutes. I would love to try Nagahara though.

How long have you had your flute?

I`ve never tried it, but i`d love to some time

Ive had my miyazawa for about eight months roughly. I really helps my playing. the pinless mech gives the opportunity to develop a very fluid style and the thumb key means my wrist never gets tired or sore. I strongly recommend the Brogger but it does considerabley bump the price of the flute up. If you can afford it it`s well worth it.

That is an intersting little gadget. I would like to try that out sometime...
