Gold, Silver and Vulture Bone Flutes

from The Inline G Flute Podcast Hosted by Gareth Houston

Gold, silver or vulture bone; does the material of a flute really make a difference? Are flute companies pulling the wool over your eyes, and how do you stop them? This week I look at a brief history of flute making, the US vs Japan battle and your own stories about flutes to finally answer the question; does an expensive flute really mean better?
