The Burkart Elite flute is a handmade custom flute with soldered tone holes and features Burkart’s™ micro-Link™ pinless mechanism.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BURKART SOUND

• Proprietary Gold Solders High-karat gold solders with lower melting temperatures join the tone holes of the Elite flute to the body. These gold solders bond the flute parts more effectively than soft solders, do not deteriorate over time, and enhance resonance and projection.
• Tonal Voicing The tone holes of every Burkart Elite flute are tuned using the Lillian Burkart system of voicing. This final touch gives the Burkart Elite flute its even, balanced tone in all registers.
• Silent Action Sleek, felt bumpers regulate and quiet the key action.
• Contemporary Pads The response and stability of these pads enhance the beauty of the sound in all environments.
