The Quantz 505 is the baseline model of the Pearl student flute range, with all the features of a standard student flute including closed-hole keys, an offset G and split-E mechanism.
Uniquely among flutes in this price range, some of its keys are French-pointed (with a pointed key arm extending to the centre of the key cup), something more commonly found on intermediate and professional instruments. It also benefits from other unique design features which contribute to a smooth and reliable key mechanism.
- Silver-plated nickel silver headjoint
- Silver-plated nickel silver body, footjoint and key mechanism
- Closed-hole keys
- Offset G and split E mechanism
- French-pointed key design

Buying tips: Nowadays all starter flutes have similar specifications, including split-E mechanism, offset G and closed-hole keys. The most significant choice, determined by the build of the player, is between a flute with a straight or a curved headjoint. A curved headjoint helps a smaller player adopt a more comfortable posture, which of course makes practising more pleasurable. Price is a good indicator of quality; very cheap instruments are difficult and costly to maintain. A fully serviced pre-owned instrument from a reputable manufacturer is always a good low-risk choice for a beginner. Click here to see our current stock of pre-owned flutes.
