An affordable way to start
A good beginner's flute is distinguished by a wide range of sound dynamics and for being comfortable in the hands of any player. The Thomann FL-200 fulfils these criteria and is currently one of the most affordable flutes on the market. This flute makes a convincing case with good intonation in all registers, an easy response, and a centred sound. The headjoint, the body, and the mechanism consist of silver-plated nickel and are solidly manufactured. With this model, which has been available since 1999, Thomann offers a flute with an E-mechanism and an offset G. The scope of delivery includes a stable wooden case, a cleaning rod, a polishing cloth, and cork grease as well as a music stand and a Thomann FBP-1 backpack that is ideal for flutes.

For those first notes on the flute
Thanks to its good intonation in all registers and solid manufacturing quality, the FL-200 is very suitable as a beginner's instrument. A fact worthy of mention is that the notes in the low registers don't drop in intonation and respond superbly. The notes in the third octave also intonate very steadily, so that it doesn't require excessive rotary adjustment. The flute is equipped with closed keys, which offer significantly greater comfort compared to open holes, as the fingers can lay more flexibly on the keys - an important condition for beginners to learn successfully. The FL-200C version is recommended for younger players, as it allows them to choose between a straight and a bent headjoint. This allows players with short arms to adopt a more relaxed playing position, as the distance between hands and body is shortened.

A great start
A flute should be designed in a manner that enables well-intonated and dynamic playing in all registers. The intonation possibilities shouldn’t be too extensive, but they should not be too limited either. For those who want to opt for the flute – whether as a beginner or coming from another instrument – the FL-200’s convincing price-performance ratio makes it a good choice. Many teachers value this flute as a learning instrument thanks to its great playing and sound qualities. For this reason, it is commonly found in music classes and music academies. Moreover, it is also suitable as a backup instrument for saxophonists and clarinettists. The rucksack included in this bundle is ideal for transporting the flute to lessons securely, and the music stand is of course an important and often-overlooked accessory for beginners.
