I have had a straight Silver head Gemm for 25+ years. Played it some yesterday for a memorial service. I have some muscle problems so I am in some pain today. I'm OK with my Jupiter bass flute so I'm considering a curved head alto now. Hardly use either but it would be nice to enjoy them when I do.
Any recommendations for curved head altos? Lots of no name Asian ones out there. I would be inclined to get a Jupiter, Gemm, or Dean Yang based on what I have read. $1500 price point. How about Allora?
