I have a broken flute key, it`s in the back, when means I can`t play F etc. , D etc, E etc. I want to know it is fixable, and if it is I want to know around how much would it cost. Also another problem is that I can`t find the peice to the part that broke off. So if you have any suggestion, please tell.

Hi, I would recommend taking the flute to the store where you bought it and have a flute tech take a look at it. It is most likely fixable as long as it is not one of the throw away flutes that you buy from Ebay or department stores.

Good Luck

Well I ordered it from on line, and the band name is Bandfolio, and I live in the middle of the desert, and there is only one music store, which fixes instruments, but I am not sure if it would cost a lot of money to fix, since the store is in the middle of the desert.

Hi, I did a google search to find that brand of flute and found out what they cost. I didn`t read whether they come with a warranty or not but you may have trouble finding a repair person anywhere that will fix that flute because they don`t have parts for brands like those. I would call the music store you do have, and ask them if they can fix it or not. I would seriously consider saving your money for a used Yamaha or the like and you will save yourself some fustration and money in the long run.
