"3 open holes, plugs included"

Who knew it was an electric flute!? :D :D :D :D :D :D
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your flute. Where can you go from there? Where?
Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Eleven. Exactly. One louder.

Sorry the flautist has to be the killjoy... but the "Conservatory" should be capitalized, as it is one of Gemeinhardt's intermediate lines. Their open-hole instruments are generally sold with plugs for students to acclimate to removing one at a time. I've never been much of a Gemeinhardt fan, but their piccolos are nice, and a sterling head instrument is a nice choice for an aspiring student.

Wow! I had no idea that student flutes need fans, too. Do they overheat a lot? :shock:

Only the wooden ones, when burned :-)

Or the electric ones, when turned up to eleven.
