The most important thing with what ever flute you choose is that it is well set up and not leaking.

Thank you, and sorry if I wrote too many words to ask such a simple question. I know that each manufacturer may have positive and negative things and maybe neither of these flutes is better than the other, but I would like to hear your experiences with these brands and which one do you prefer, of course I will play them both and try to find out which one feels better but just in case I can't figure out by myself I would like to know your comments.

But I don't plan to keep them all, only one, and I will sell the other two, but my question is which brand do you recommend for a beginner who plans to continue playing over the years but probably never at professional level? all of them will need pad replacement, which I will do in the next days with a professional near my area, and also I will send them all to the repair shop just in case they need any work. Well I will tell you a bit of my story, when I just started thinking about learn flute I bought a cheap flute in eBay, that later a discover that was one of those Chinese bad manufactured flutes, so I sold the flute and now I just bought three used flutes, one Gemeinhardt and two Artleys. Actually I feel very enthusiastic at this because I am discovering that flute is the instrument I like the most so I plan to keep learning and playing. I have previous experiences in music, I play trumpet, harmonica, and now I am learning flute (I'm a 26 YO Computer Systems Engineer).

Hello, everyone, I am new at the forum and also at flutes, I am just starting to learn, I don't have a teacher but I am studying from a book.
