I thought I would be amazed by the Haynes flute since its popularity and price tag. But I found really the performance of Muramatsu is the best among the three - with the sweet sound in both the middle and high registers. Hope to really hear more differences between the sound of Japanese and American flutes. Thanks, Lance.
I liked the Muramatsu the best. It had a wider range of tone colors, from really dark chocolate, to a brilliant, sparkly sound. I also feel that the tone colors were the most consistent throughout the registers, and the articulation was the cleanest and clearest.
These are the most thorough reviews on TH-cam. Thank you so much!
Lance, thank you for the demonstration. I found the tone of the Murimatsu (spelling?), was exceptionally beautiful. I would really love to hear of your preference for the flutes.
I also LOVE the tone of the Muramatsu. Also, the mechanism of the Muramatsu EX really does feel like a pro-level flute.
In this demo, i love the muramatsu for tone,colours,and articulation
I really like the EX sound, as it sounds richer and more in depth than the other two, especially in low register and also a tad warmer.
Definitely a warm flute with juicy low reg. Thanks for watching!
I liked the Haynes, very warm, big sound.
I have played Yamahas here and there at various conventions, one of which was yesterday here in Utah…and it’s interesting- I find Yamahas really easy to play but lacking some color that muramatsu and other flute brands have. I played a Haynes Q4 too yesterday, and it was ok. The 5% gold Haynes spoke for me so much more easily. I currently play an Altus Azumi AZ3.
Very astute observations! Sometimes when the flutes are so easy to play, sound wise, you have to make sacrifices in depth of sound and color. I am so curious to try the 5% Haynes. Hopefully soon!
I was at the Utah flute convention too!
Hey Lance, could You make a video about the best beginner flutes ? Would be very helpful 🙏
Oh that Muramatsu is the one. Being an owner of the all silver DS I know that Muramatsu sound. Very warm and focused. I love mine.
Yamaha was the one I like the best low notes sound full . I have a yamaha c flute open holes, for 27 years, no problema. Rafael Matos .
Yes. The Yamaha has a very strong low register. Thanks for watching and glad you are still enjoying your Yamaha!
The Muramatsu's sound is very beautiful.
Merci beaucoup, Lance!!!! J'hésite justement entre ces trois types de flûtes... j'aime beauxoup le son chaud et l'articulation de la Muramatsu... et la facilité d'émission et clarté de la Yamaha... la Haynes demande sans doute plus de temps pour chauffer mais a de très beaux grâves.
Bravo pour cette vidéo très bien faite!
1. I played the Yamaha 777 all solid silver flute a couple of weeks ago.
Absolutely loved it.
2. For this video, I don't like the Haynes.
Give me the Murumatsu and Yamaha any day !
❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶
Thanks for the demo. Hard to tell the difference. It was very close thought the muramatsu just had the edge.
Yes. The differences are very subtle.
the Haynes Q1 I had and it is made in Taiwan .Sold it after 6 months I have the EX it is amazing
I think they all sound amazing. For me the Muramatsu and Yamaha would be a tough choice. I play a similar model Yamaha now, but have a different headjoint on it (Sankyo). I think being able to get a sterling body at that price is pretty great.
True! I didn’t review it this time, but the Di Zhao 800 is also a very good budget option for solid silver.
@@LanceSuzuki I would love to try Di Zhao!
I haven't try each of these 3 brands before, actually I like Muramatsu > Haynes>Yamaha. Muramatsu gives a more clear and beautiful tone color from Low to High registers. Not sure why Yamaha sounds not as bright as the others, because of the heavy wall?
Very nice! I did similar comparisons when I upgraded from my student flute and ended up with the Yamaha 677. It was as good as the Muramatsu for me, at a much lower price, so it was a win-win. I do love the heavy full silver body too!
Great!!
Yamaha 677 is min. 1500 Eur expensive than Muramatsu EX
@@miropopradi not in the US. It was 1000 USD cheaper with the same features.
@@miropopradi bought a 677H about 7 years back, was around USD 2,835, Yamaha always had big sale from time to time.
Gracias por las demostraciones! Me gustó mucho Muramatsu, aclarada mi duda, tengo vieja yamaha 471, con cabeza Emanuel y está en su hora de cambiar, buscando economía y calidad de sonido.
Thanks for your comprehensive review
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Overall all I would love to have a bit from the Haynes and a bit from the Muramatsu. We could put the two together and name it the Haynes-a-matsu.
Muramatsu is favourite.
Muramatsu, sans conteste pour le son qui est vraiment très beau.
Thanks for your informative review.
👍👍 Thanks!!
Muramatsu, Haynes, then the Yamah. Thank you
Lance un excelente video. En cuanto al color y brillo me gustó mucho la muramatsu.👍
Muramatsu to my ears. But I will take any of them. Thanks
I'm such a fan, Lance! Thanks for that! What brand do you play? For me it was a tie between the Muramatsu and the Yamaha (but I play a 581, so I'm a Yami-girl at heart!)
Thanks so much! I play on a Brannen 10K at the moment.
All were nice sounding but I prefer the maramatsu or the yamaha😊😊
I am a Haynes fan anyway but overall I absolutely would pick it here anyway. I felt it has the best balance. The tone is round and the low register is full. I found the Muramatsu thin in the upper register. And the Yamaha in the lower register muddy. The resonance is uneven. The Muramatsu, I felt, had the best response in the faster passage. I would choose Haynes for best overall the Muramatsu. I probably would pass on the Yamaha just because I am not a fan of the sound.
I have had a Haynes hand made professional model since 1959. (Yes, I'm that old and still play) I recently had it overhauled by a Haynes expert, and it now almost plays itself. There is no flute I would trade it for.
non e la marca del flauto ma chi lo suona,complimenti a te
Yamaha 677 sterling silver body it's the same of GX Muramatsu and not EX, with only silver headjoint
Great review. Is this fast tonguing passage performed with simple or double tonguing?
Thanks! I double tongued. My single tongue is definitely not fast enough for that!!
How important are the Straubinger pads in your opinion ?
Do you know if Muramatsu EX uses stainless steel spring or gold spring?
Great question. I am pretty sure they are gold springs. Certainly did not feel like stainless.
Lance, I know you can’t really favor one over another. But if you were an old guy like me (72) that just plays for the fun of it, which would you buy? I have a 100 year old Haynes that plays good but I often have problems with my sound. I think a modern flute might be easier to play and more fun. I would sell my Haynes but don’t think I would get much for it. Thank you 🙏. Michael
The Muramatsu for sure
What does that piece in your intro
It’s movement 3 of the Benjamin Godard Suite in 3.
Yes. Jenifer got it. Godard: Allegretto from “Suite de 3 Morceaux.” Also, the music playing under the ad was my arrangement for flute choir of Mozart: Rondeau from A Major Flute Quartet.
I felt like 677 close to ex
😍🤩👏
🙏 ❤️
Some very nice flutes, I do enjoy my solid silver flute its not thick wall but I do like the deeper tone. Great comparison video 2x👍
I am ready to test 2 Alto flutes a Pearl and a Trevor James just the graduate range I dont need anything fancy.
Great! I’m curious to see how your alto test will go. Good luck and enjoy!
@@LanceSuzuki I will give you an update next time you post a video 👍
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
🙏 thanks!
@@LanceSuzuki thanks for sharing 👍🙏❤️
