The Azumi S3 flute with C-foot, sterling silver (.958) S-cut headjoint, body and foot and choice of closed keys (Azumi AZS3E) or open keys (Azumi AZS3RE).

The S3 series Azumi comes with an S-cut headjoint made of Britannia silver (.958). The headjoint is handmade by the higher positioned brand Altus and the oval shaping of the embouchure hole (S-Cut) gives the Azumi AZ-S3 a versatile, individual tone with slightly more resistance than the Z-cut head-joint. The Britannia silver (.958) body and foot-joint make the Z3 and S3 flutes the top series of Azumi.
