Thank you all for your well intended comments, advice and equally what I consider to be constructive criticism to help us improve ourselves.
We do realise and endeavor to do the `little extra' recommended by the few of you to get our quality to the next level and be the manufacturer that you can safely and happily recommend to all for our budget line of flutes, etc (incidently we manufacture/supply unmatched 5 lines of ready to use, out of the box products that very few companies even consider handling, in our small small scale cottage industry production model - almost all of which are well known to be the best from the subcontinent. These too are being constantly upgraded and new products added on).
Do direct your comments and recommendations to me directly at
ceo@synergyhouse.net for our D flute that clearly needs some more work as we would like to sort out the remaining glitches with this product (I am aware that our flute's foot joint and keys need better finish/spacing alongwith perhaps a better case. Pitch really isnt a real issue/problem as this info can be googled by those who arent aware as to how flutes are usually pitched a notch higher i.e. D in reality is Eb etc.
Additional ideas/suggestions are most welcome.
Also greatly appreciate your finally clarifying the distinction between our particular product and other `junk' from the sub continent.
Thanks & Regards.
Vikram.
http://www.synergyhouse.net p.s. my apologies to jemsflute for not corresponding adequately to discuss quality etc concerns/queries in the past - I usually do not handle retail queries but since this is to do with our product and thus our reputation and credibility, I will be more than happy to personally discuss and resolve product improvement to sort this matter out once and for all.
