Dwayne Kerr Garners Endorsement from GUO Musical Instruments Co. on the Eve of Touring Again with Erykah Badu


 

Dwayne
Kerr, flutist for Erykah Badu, recently announced his endorsement with
GUO Musical Instruments Co.  As a frequently touring artist, Kerr is a
great match for this maker of composite flutes. “I always wanted to own a
wood flute, but touring with the additional stress of changing weather
and climate can make traveling with a wood flute challenging. The
Grenaditte is great. It’s made with a polymer composite material…no
problems and no more worries,” he said.

Kerr
is quick to point out that the weight of the flute does not compromise
the quality. “It’s light weight making it ideal to travel and has a
beautiful warm, dark and rich tone. The action is really responsive…I
absolutely love my Grenaditte C flute…I believe the Grenaditte is the
next innovation in flute technology.” To continue, please click “MORE”!
