Intermediate Flutes

The intermediate flute market has changed quite drastically over the past 10 years. More and more manufacturers are starting to put more effort into their headjoint design thus producing higher performance flutes while still maintaining a moderate price range. Because of this industry change, we feel the term "intermediate" is no longer accurate to describe the offerings in the market. Instead, we separate this market into 2 categories each with 2 sub-groups (Solid Silver Headjoint or Solid Silver Body):

Step Up These flutes are more similar to the traditional design that the term "intermediate" indicated. These models are your first step up from student models. However, even now in this segment we are finding more advanced designs trickling down (the Galway Spirit models for example)
  Shop Step Up - Silver Head | Shop Step Up - All Silver
Advanced Intermediate This category of flutes now is one that we feel offers the best values on the market. These are flutes that feature advanced headjoint design but and other advanced features but are being made to fit the traditional "intermediate" price range. Typically, a flute that we classify as an "Advanced Intermediate" with ONLY a Solid Silver headjoint will still outperform an All Silver "Step Up" level flute. This is due solely the better headjoints on this level of flute.
Many stores and manufacturers will actually call this level of flute "professional".
  Shop Advanced Intermediate - Silver Head | Shop Advanced Intermediate - All Silver
