Durable, lightweight construction

At just 241g, this NUVOBand instrument is considerably lighter than the equivalent flutes from brands such as Trevor James, Jupiter and Yamaha - the Trevor James TJ3005EW student flute comes in at 405g, the JFL700EX weighs 416g and the Yamaha YFL212ID is 415g! Constructed from a lightweight, durable engineering polymer blended for a high strength-to-weight ratio, the reduced weight of the flute ensures good posture for extended practice sessions among even the youngest, smallest players.

Built to last with little maintenance required

The pads are designed for longevity and should never require adjustment, allowing you to continue enjoying your instrument for years to come. Crafted with attention to detail, the NUVOBand flute boasts durable keywork, long-lasting polymer springs, and high-grade stainless steel rods.

A huge benefit of the key system used for NUVOBand instruments is that they are so easy to maintain! This brings down costs and is supported by the 5 year parts warranty - NUVOBand have even provided a handy key chart below.

Engineered to perfection

Weighing around half that of a traditional flute, this instrument is a marvel of engineering. Constructed from a lightweight, durable engineering polymer blended for a high strength-to-weight ratio, the reduced weight of the flute ensures good posture for extended practice sessions. This flute is geared towards beginner players and can support learners all the way up to grade 5, so the lightness is brilliant for encouraging excellent playing habits.

Silicone comfort pads where each thumb rests help to aid playing comfort, along with ergonomic offset A and G keys which all helps learners to play for longer without their fingers getting too tired.. The body and head joint feature alignment markings to help beginner flautists develop good habits in assembling their instrument.

Supporting regular practice

Research supports the effectiveness of frequent, short practice sessions, so each instrument includes a “Keep It Out” hanger, encouraging regular musical activity. Install it on a door, wall, or locker for easy access. If you need a hand to get started, the digital “Let’s Play” Quick Start Guide is there to assist beginners.

A sustainable and effective option for your music department

Plastic instruments are a sustainable choice for the classroom.

Manufacturing carbon footprint - Extracting oil to make ABS resin consumes less energy than mining nickel, zinc and copper, which are used to make traditional flutes and clarinets.

Durability and lifespan – Whilst metal instruments often become bent out of shape or dented, ABS keys are tough and relatively elastic which means they can flex but will return accurately to original shape. Nuvo instruments can last a lifetime with affordable spares that are easy to replace yourself, greatly reducing maintenance costs.

Cleaning and hygiene – Plastic instruments are easy to keep clean by fully immersing in hot soapy water, from time to time. In contrast, traditional metal instruments require more careful maintenance. For example, a metal flute must be cleaned and thoroughly dried after each use to prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to corrosion and tarnishing.
