It has a really good tone quality also

Yes, the upgraded flute had better tone, but the Gemeinhart was much easier to play and still produced nice tone

Its tone was sweeter and warmer than the other instruments, which had all sounded fine enough, but still somehow colder than this.

It got me through my middle school years without any problems, but as soon as I got to high school I realized that the flute started to get a very bad tone

I have never played one in my life and found the tone to be very clear and easy to blow.

The very same "stiff key" review noted a harsh tone.

I asked again today and she went into detail about how she's happy with the richer tone that she's getting out of this one

I'm giving it 3 stars because the notes that did play had a very nice tone up in the low register all the way up to the high

It has a nice tone and she fond it to be easy to play.

This flute has wonderful, warm tones and is good for the student or the seasoned user.

If you like a better tone, and dont mind using more air power, I suggest the other models mentioned

Gemeinhardt flutes, I have found, have a harsh tone to them and aren't as fluid to play as other brands

The tone is beautiful

This is a great flute, excellent tone, quality pads, plating, etc
