The Pearl PFA-207 has many features that highight the quality of this instrument. The ergonomically designed mouthpiece for a comfortable feel in long performances and rehearsals. The flute features a core bar one piece construction for increased durability.The ergonomic and specially designed keys offer grip and comfort across the playing surface. The pinless mechanism prevents corrosion for long lasting durability. The pointed braces on the keys create a very strong and responsive key action.
Designed with playability in mind, the flute's Split E mechanism allows you to play the difficult top E - typically a weak sounding and unreliable note - with far greater ease and consistency. The flute is also made using Pearl's innovative Pinless construction and One-Piece Core Bar, providing it with an extremely comfortable feel, as well as preventing many of the usual wear and tear problems associated with traditionally made flutes.
The flute features an extended "B" footjoint, which allows the instrument to play a semitone below the lowest note of the standard footjoint, although as the Alto flute is a transposing instrument, this note sounds as a low F# rather than B. As well as improving the instrument's range, the longer tube adds a little extra resistance as you play, providing the flute with a darker, more mellow tone.
