“In a market that is saturated with dull sounding instruments, North Bridge step up flutes shine brightly. Great work from a company that understands what young flutists are really looking for.”
Making the step up to a musical instrument offering professional features is an important decision for all musicians. The step-up instrument is the bridge that often transforms the budding student into the professional artist. Choosing the right instrument can lead to significant musical progress, as well as great success and accomplishment. North Bridge offers a unique family of intermediate level flutes, which allow the flutist to find their musical voice and to develop a full, rich, and beautiful sound.
NB-700
The NB-700 has all of the great features found on the NB-600, with the addition of pointed arms. Pointed arms allow for a lighter touch and keep your flute in better adjustment than Y-arms. Discriminating flutists will appreciate the subtle differences in response and aesthetics.
