Yamaha Flute YFL-222 This is a used flute that my daughter used for one year in her club. At the time, she was a beginner and just starting to be able to produce sound, and the orchestra advisor recommended that she buy this one. It was purchased about 5 years ago at a musical instrument store in New York. It was used for about a year. The original purchase price was about $800. It will be shipped via anonymous delivery, packed in the original hard case, and then packaged with cardboard and cushioning material. I think it's in good condition, but there are some minor scratches. It's a used item that was used twice a week for a year, so there may be individual differences in how it appears. Please check the photos carefully before purchasing. I am not familiar with musical instruments, so the following is pasted from the internet. The main difference between the Yamaha YFL-221 and 222 is that the 222 is the successor to the 221, and it is a model that has a more modern specification (especially the adoption of pointed top arms, etc.) and aims for a look and operability closer to professional models. The 222 retains the ease of playing and accurate intonation that were well-received in the 211/221, while the details such as the key shape, pads, and head joint have been improved, making it easier to play, but the basic positioning as a "student model" remains the same. The YFL-222 is a well-designed instrument inspired by the professional series flutes and designed to meet the needs of beginners. Featuring a silver-plated nickel silver head joint, body, foot joint, and hand-assembled silver-plated keys with a comfortable offset G configuration, the high-quality YFL-222 is durable and easy to play. The plateau-style closed rings provide a great platform for young players to learn basic fingering techniques, and the beginner-friendly head joint provides the ideal amount of resistance. Excellent tone and easy playing. The head joint, body, foot joint, and lip plate of the Yamaha YFL-222 are carefully crafted from nickel silver, providing a rich, resonant character and uniform tone throughout the instrument's entire range. The hand-assembled silver-plated keys are ergonomically designed. The world-renowned Yamaha instruments combine precision engineering, innovation, and consistent performance, and are popular instruments for both beginners and experienced professionals in the music industry.
