Instrument adjusted by a luthier.
Pearl Flute - Alto FluteThe Pearl alto flute is a truly monumental instrument, and the only one of its kind on the market equipped with the Pinless and One-Piece Core-Bar technologies with an undisputed reputation. Furthermore, the ergonomic hand positioning proves to be extremely comfortable, and the head design offers excellent response and equally impressive sound projection. The craftsmanship of Pearl makers dedicated to precise intonation, dynamic sound spectrum, and sound flexibility has enabled the development of truly efficient and reliable mechanics.
Pearl – A Tradition of Innovation
The handcrafted manufacturing process of Pearl is the result of a long tradition. From study models to professional copies, each instrument must accompany every stage of a flutist's career. To ensure this lasting quality, the Japanese company has initiated a unique training program at its factory in Chiba, Japan, so that experienced artisans share their know-how with new generations of workers.
One-Piece Core-Bar
The One-Piece Core-Bar manufacturing system, present on all the brand's flutes, eliminates recurring problems found in models from other manufacturers that lack it. Indeed, Pearl has designed a rod that runs through the key axes, from high C to F#, which stabilizes the mechanics, makes them more comfortable, for superior durability and less maintenance.
Pinless Construction
All Pearl flutes are built using the Pinless process patented by the Japanese brand. When combined with the mechanics, this system eliminates one of the problems encountered by traditional makers: the small pins that catch on clothing and promote the infiltration of sweat and skin acidity. A phenomenon that can harm the instrument by causing corrosion and stiffness of the keys. This drawback has been eliminated thanks to the insertion of pin screws under the mechanics, thus removing the need for traditional screws.
