CONN-SELMER
Conn-Selmer, Inc. announces the new Avanti step-up flutes. Avanti flutes are designed by Bickford Brannen, founder of the Brannen Bros. Flutemakers. Two models of Avanti flutes are available, and each model features a sterling silver Avanti-Brannen headjoint. The Avanti-Brannen headjoint makes the characteristic Brannen sound more accessible to the developing flutist. Hand-cut, each headjoint is crafted in a “sound-driven” process. The model 2000 features a sterling silver body and foot joint tubing, a sterling silver barrel and receiver, a silver-plated mechanism, and a 10K gold springs set. The model 1000 is identical, except that it features silver-plated body and foot joint tubing as well as steel springs.
