What We Like
The Solexa S-80 offers tremendous value for money for the beginner flute student. Featuring a solid silver riser (which is extremely rare in this price segment), this flute is free blowing, rewarding students with a satisfying sound whilst they are still finding their feet. This will encourage them to keep coming back to their flute during this most crucial part of their development.
As the student develops, they will soon discover that they can actually explore a variety of different tone colours on this flute, something that’s often limited on many other student flutes, which means students can start early on this part of their development and awareness. Needless to say, we are big fans of this flute and feel that they will be a great starter flute for students to help them build a strong foundation when they first pick up the flute.

SOLEXA
Known for innovative solutions, we have a no-nonsense approach to mechanical improvement. While many of the modifications are hard to detect to the naked eye, flutists will love the familiarity of our instruments and at the same time, notice the ease in handling. That is a result of the ergonomic consideration and optimised mechanical efficiency we have developed.
We also kept in mind the durability and serviceability when designing the Solexa flute. For example, finding a quality replacement pad should be easy because we chose the most common sizes on all of our parts. During regular services and/or emergencies, this thoughtfulness will be invaluable.
ABA Music, Inc. brings you an instrument with beautiful tone, excellent resonance, solid intonation, and exacting mechanism.
Material
All tubing used on Solexa instruments have been selected with extreme attention to ensure exact dimensions. Our sterling silver guarantee maximum silver content. All the rods adopt high strength and high precision stainless steel with calculated treatment. Not to be left out, our pivot and adjustment screws are produced by the most advanced CNC equipment.
Tubing
Even the preliminary steps of preparing the tube need great care. The result is a more even and resonant instrument.
Key Cups
All keys and cups are made by advanced computerised lathes and sculpting equipment to ensure consistency and accuracy.
Key Arms
To ensure optimal strength and durability, minimal heat and work are done to prepare the key arms.
Assembly
Our experienced technicians carefully put these parts together. Then they go through stringent tests and adjustments. Once finished, every Solexa flute shines in any player's hands.
Finished Product
All Solexa flutes must go under strict quality control before shipment. We pride ourselves for providing you with a joyful music making experience through our painstakingly crafted instruments.
