NUVO jFlute

I haven’t picked up a flute since I was in marching band over ten years ago and this was the perfect way to get back into playing. The quality is amazing for being a plastic instrument. It feels very sturdy but it’s lightweight enough that I can hold it comfortably for hours. Which is good because you won’t want to put it down! The case is very nice and the little accessories work very well. The extra lip plate works very well not just for when you’re too lazy to have good posture but it helps when you want to quickly practice some fingerings without trying to make too much sound. The only con is they don’t explain how to remove the key cap extensions so be very careful. The A & G caps simply slide to the left and detach, DONT try to snap them off. And the G# extension has a little notch that locks it in place, simply lift the little arm on it and it’ll slide off. I tried to include a picture to show what I mean. Also it would be nice if they had included some extra black silicone caps because once you take off the extensions there’s nothing to cover the keys with. Overall I’m in love with this flute and would recommend it to everyone. P.S I also bought the upgrade kit which is why I showed the second lip plate on the straight head joint. Buying the kit saved me money vs buying the student flute upfront, so it’s like I got two instruments for less 👍🏼

I was worried this would be a toy or a gimmick, but it's a great flute. Takes a little more air than my silver G'hart but it's crisp in tone in the upper registers and warm down low. Some have mentioned it doesn't play low well, but mine has no issues at all. It'd be nice if the springs were a little stiffer, but it works just fine. Very glad I bought it.

This in combination with the toot is the best pathway to going from 0 to hero. I use it with my students all the time. Their innovative head joint is such a game changer for younger players and even older players. It turns what I consider to be the most frustrating instrument into a simple 4 step process. I have the toot and the jflute conversion and it’s just great. Especially with how expensive flutes can be and how hard it is to find a good used flute that doesn’t need pad replacement, it’s just a no brainer. Buy both and thank me later

I have played the flute for many, many years, but lately have only gotten out my Gemeinhardt flute at Christmas time. Then I got this jFlute. My Nuvo jFlute is so rugged, and has such a wonderful tone, that I leave it out all the time and pick it up to play little tunes all the time. LOVE IT! The only problem I've had is when I bought the kit to make it full flute size, the foot joint does not go on right. The angle is wrong. Otherwise I highly recommend this to any flute player. Also, I have another jFlute that I am using to teach my granddaughter. She loves the alternate mouthpiece, while she is learning to make a sound with the regular mouthpiece.

Great instrument. This flute is really awesome for young players with shorter arms. As the player gets bigger, you will want the straight headjoint as the donut makes it hard to hold with adult length arms. They sell a straight headjoint and C foot upgrade pack for when the young player is large enough. This is a phenomenal flute for the price. Highly recommend.

This broke second week of lessons. Teacher, music store, no one can fix it. It sure what actually is wrong but the key won’t open. :/ so disappointing

This plays as well or better than any of the student flutes I have owned. For my skill level it’s perfect. I owned a nuvo dood before and was not impressed with its playability or musicality but this thing is a real instrument and if I was a beginner or had a kid interested in trying flute , I think this one would get a lot of mileage before they needed an upgrade . Spending of upgrades I got the longer neck and the extension for the low c. That’s a must if you are not just goofing off. The upgrades fit perfectly in the very cool case it comes with too!

If the idea is that this is a great beginner instrument to introduce the flute to younger students, then I'd say there are more effective and cheaper alternatives out there. The Nuvo is better in concept that in execution. Both my son and I tried, but even with the supplied beginner mouth piece to make blowing and making first sounds easier, it was hard to make a good sound on the instrument, especially on the lower notes. The construction seemed solid and there are no complaints about the overall ergonomics which are faithful to a Boehm flute. But it was just a non-starter as far as making a decent sound and progessing with fingering and notes were concerned. Returned this and bought my son a good recorder instead and he's having a lot more fun and making a lot more progress with fingering, intonation etc so he can eventually make a jump to a good quality student flute. I know the recorder is a fipple instrument while the Nuvo is meant to be a beginner flute, but a big part of long term success for young kids who are interested in woodwinds, is to have small victories along the way and start loving music by playing a few tunes, and not be daunted by a bunch of keys and discouraged by the initial hump. If the concern is to get used to a side-blown flute, there is a Yamaha fife YRF-21 that costs less than 10 bucks and will teach kids to blow into a transverse hole to produce a sound and it's just as easy to clean and maintain since it's made of ABS. So my personal opinion is that this is neither here nor there. Whether for adult or younger beginners, a simpler instrument which is easier to blow and still easy enough to clean, carry and play will do a lot more for developing an affinity for woodwinds and a proper student flute at that point would be a better investment than buying this Nuvo.

J'ai reçu cette Jflute Nuvo en noir en temps et en heure.Cela faisait quelques années que je voulais essayer la flute traversière, mais ne sachant pas si j'allais y prendre goût, j'ai opté pour ce joli instrument peu onéreux(comparé à d'autres). J'ai depuis acheté le Kit en do avec l'embouchure fournie afin de jouer en configuration "normale". Cette flute est tout simplement génial, j'adore.Bon, je suis en train d apprendre donc mon avis n'est pas forcément objectif mais j'en suis très satisfait.Par contre au début, j'ai eu peur de casser le kit en do au bout de la flute: car c’était difficile de le visser les premières fois. Mais à force, il se clips beaucoup plus facilement.Voilà, n'hésitez pas si vous avez envie d'apprendre sans vous ruiner.

Mm pas un âne et elle ne fait plus des song
