Pearl B665E-ESS Quantz Flute with Brezza Headjoint, Closed Hole - Ex Demo

Full Description

Thoughtful design

It's Pearl's attention to detail that produces such a beautiful instrument. At the top of the flute, you will find Pearl's sterling silver Brezza headjoint. The sterling silver combined with the Brezza cut produces a more refined sound with sharper articulation and fullness of sound throughout the flute range. To add another layer to the tone to give it more depth, the heavy crown adds richer, darker notes. These details make this instrument perfect for students wanting to advance their playing and take their tone to a new level, but the quality of the sound means this instrument is loved by professionals too.

Unlike other student flutes, all Quantz models come with French-pointed arms as standard. This ergonomic key design makes the flute comfortable to play, giving you greater stability and control. The B665E-ESS also comes with closed keys. This style is recommended by music teachers as closed keys give easier control over your intonation, meaning you can play with confidence. The engraved keys on the Pearl B665E-ESS Quantz Flute look sophisticated too.

A design that works for you. The Quantz B665E-ESS features an offset G key that allows for a more relaxed hand position and improves your posture. Similarly, the split E mechanism gives a more stable response when playing a high E. You'll be able to add more punch to the notes and slur up to the third octave E more easily. Pearl's considered design means you can rely on your flute to provide a consistent sound and response.

Beautifully engraved finish

For an extra touch of class, the crown, lip plate, and mechanism are engraved with a unique, delicate design, giving the flute a professional look that sets it apart from other flutes in the same price range. This finish not only looks stunning, but the silver-plated finish gives the B665E-ESS Quantz Flute a reliable, consistent tone, which is exactly what you need as an intermediate player.

An industry first

Traditionally constructed flutes can often suffer a lot of issues due to wear and tear. To help prevent this, Pearl designed a one-piece core bar which is at the heart of all of their flutes. Having one rod that extends from the high C through to the king post results in an extremely reliable mechanism that is more comfortable to play. The one-piece core bar also stays in adjustment for longer and is much easier to service, saving you money in the future.

Every Pearl flute is meticulously designed with a patented pinless construction which resolves many of the mechanical problems of a traditional flute. What does this mean for you? No longer can protruding needles snag your clothing and provide an easy entry to perspiration that could potentially cause corrosion and key binding. Instead, Pearl has used underside socket-head screws preventing the entry of any perspiration into the mechanism. These inventive yet basic designs are industry firsts for student flutes and enable aspiring flute players to play with an exceptionally efficient and reliable mechanism.

Included accessories

To ensure your new flute stays in its best condition, it comes with everything you need to look after it. To protect your instrument while commuting, a French-style flute case is included. For added protection, the Quantz flute includes a soft carry case with a shoulder strap which makes transportation easy and comfortable. To make sure your flute lasts as long as possible, it should be cleaned regularly. This is why the Pearl B665E-ESS comes with a cleaning rod and polishing cloth so you can keep your new flute looking brand new.
