I've been playing on a Gemeinhardt since 6th grade, and it's served me well (I'm a junior now). I was looking to buy a second cheap flute that I could either keep at home for more convenient practice or bring to school if it ends up being better than my original. SO basically, it doesn't have to be great, just decent. I only need it for practicing so it doesn't have to be anything grand or expensive as it probably won't be my primary flute.

Anyways, I was looking on ebay and found two potential options.
1.) Jupiter JFL 511 II

2.) Yamaha 225sii

WHich is the better option of these two?? (I really don't need any other suggestions, just of the two, which is better?)
Thanks!
