Introducing the John Packer JP011 student flute outfit
John Packer are renowned for providing starter instrument for young players wanting to pick up the flute for the very first time. This, the JP011MKII, is their second generation design. Slightly shorter than a full-size instrument, it provides a shorter reach for growing players, allowing them to progress with ease without using a curved head joint.
Great features, perfect for the beginner
The entire instrument - headjoint, footjoint and keywork – are all silver plated, improving the tone of the instrument and giving it an appealing shine. The lightweight design means younger players can hold the flute upright for extended periods and the shorter length of the flute allows players with shorter arms to reach the full keywork with ease, avoiding poor posture and encouraging proper playing technique. A split-E mechanism is provided, allowing players to reach the higher registers of the instrument without any issue.
Customer testimonial
"I have been very surprised at the quality, tone and ease of use of these instruments. The children have managed to easily achieve a good tone and the slightly smaller size (only slight) has allowed them to gain a greater gain of control than the more well known brands without the need for a curved head piece.
Very pleased with the tone, as even on the first lesson the children were able to produce pleasing tones for their first attempt which of course has encouraged them to practice and are already making good progress.
I think these flutes are as good as any on the market for beginners and feel the children should be able to get to at least grade 4 on these instruments before any upgrade would need to be considered."
