For over 135 years Selmer has been making the highest quality woodwind instruments in the world. Fueled by passion and dedication to musicians the world over, Selmer has continued to be the leader in woodwind design and innovation. Selmer’s commitment to quality ensures every instrument delivers the best performance experience on or off the concert stage.

The intermediate SFL511BO features a professional hand-cut headjoint made of the finest grade American sterling silver, hand-assembled keywork, Pisoni Lucien Deluxe pads, and a body comprised of premium Japanese nickel silver. The headjoint design features a sharp blowing edge, steep drop-off lip plate, and multi-tapered bore for fast and effortless response and articulation. The under and over hand-cutting provides a rich, expressive tone that is even throughout all the registers and gives the performer extreme dynamic control.

The keywork has the highest specifications and tolerances alongside carefully adjusted and balanced German steel wire springs ensuring a feather-light, lightning-fast, and fluid key action. French pointed key arms connect at the back of the key cup and extend to the center guaranteeing greater strength, stability, even pad wear, and ultimately less overall maintenance. Every Selmer flute is professionally set up, play-tested, and optimally adjusted at the Conn-Selmer Woodwind Factory located in Elkhart, Indiana.
