FLUTES
“My first reaction when I played a Temby Elite Flute was that it probably had a $10,000 (plus) price tag. I couldn’t believe it when David said that it was actually around 1/3 of that figure – I had to own one immediately” Megan Kenny
Temby flutes have developed a reputation for their ease of play, larely owing to the hand finished embouchure hole – not found on most “assembly line” flutes. The embouchure hole is hand finished for maximum response and helps the beginning player to produce a more controlled airflow, resulting in easier production of a nicer sound, and more control of the instrument.
Comfort and playability is at the forefront of the desing of the Temby range of flutes ensureing comfroatble playing and ergonomic handpositioning.
The high quality of design, materials and attention to detail in the making of Temby flutes ensures that the instrument will always function correctly with consistent use.
All Temby flutes come in a high quality french style case with cover and have a 6 year manufactures warranty.

SIGNATURE
More than 60 schools already in Australia (let alone in other countries) use Temby Signature model flutes as their instrument of choice!
Same specifications as the Debut but with a ‘split E’ mechanism. The “Split E” mechanism helps advancing players to be more accurate and secure when playing in the 3rd octave. Depending on playing skill development, this is very helpful, usually around 18 months to 2 years of learning.
