Trophy 401 Flutophone, Black
One of the finest pre-band instruments available. The Trophy flutophone features a full chromatic scale in the key of C. The chromatic fingering is compatible with woodwinds, making it easier to start playing woodwind instruments.

Both have 7 top holes and one bottom hole, although the flutophone has an eight hole right next to the low C, to play the C#.The differences are minute
