SKU: PFB305BE
The Pearl Bass Flute
The PFB-305 comes with Pearl’s patented Pinless Mechanism and One-Piece Core-Bar Construction. It has a full, rich tone across all three octaves, a flawless scale, and an astonishing range of tone colour and dynamic capabilities. Comfortably competing with instruments two or three times its price, the PFB-305 is at home in solo repertoire, chamber music, or in flute choir. This truly versatile instrument will never fail to impress!
Pearl’s exclusive mechanism
In 1972, Pearl’s innovative technicians created the patented One-Piece Core-Bar and Pinless Construction, and Pearl’s continually smooth key-action became a reality. Since that time, Pearl is still the only flute manufacturer to apply these features on every flute made.
Silver Plated Nickle Silver Body, Keys, and Mechanism
Split-E Mechanism
The Split E mechanism is designed to make the high E more responsive. This mechanism physically splits the double G keys. When playing G, the keys behave as normal, closing both of the G keys.
When fingering high E, the mechanism closes the lower of the two G keys. This creates ideal venting for this note and therefore makes this usually troublesome note very stable. The high E speaks easier, and slurs from high A to E are much easier.
Ergonomic Design
This flute features a T-Style Left-Hand Support, helping to distribute the instrument’s weight between the left-hand knuckle and the crook of the thumb. There are also wooden touch pads, making for a stylish, slip-free playing experience. All keys are designed to be well within reach of most players–even people with less-than-average hand size.
