I have a flute with a solid silver head, keys with holes, and a B foot joint. It's a pretty unknown brand and I've been having some trouble with it (along with other people in my town) and I'm prolly going to resell it back to the vender.

Anyways, I wanted to know if you guys knew any good intermediate flutes. I'm not really sure if my flute is considered an intermediate flute of just a beginner flute with some nice specs. Suggestions are helpful. My budget is $1000 MAXIMUM.

If you do a quick search you kind find out a lot pertaining to your question as this is asked regularly on this forum.
For instance, just take a look here..

See what models are in your price range, get some on trial and see what works best for you. Flute World isn't going to sell any junk brands so you are safe there.

Material (for the most part), open hole, and B foot aren't indications of an "intermediate" or "professional" flute. They're just options, and you can just as easily get a crappy instrument with all of them as you can a fantastic instrument with none of them. It's more about the quality of construction than specific features.

I think with an upper limit of $1000, you're going to have a harder time of things. Used is probably the way to go if you want more instrument for the buck, but it's a lot of work on your part to make sure that you get what you want. If you want something new, I can say that I recently bought a new Sonare for a few dollars under $1000 and it's a great flute. You might want to consider trying a few out.

Azumi and Amadeus do the same thing as Sonare (cheaper body with a good head joint) and that brings down the price of a (probably) better flute than the usual student models.

You should decide what features you want and why. The more special features you want, the higher the price will be for the same quality. And you need to try different flutes out. You can get a great and highly recommended flute that you hate because the head joint cut doesn't suit you. I didn't know about Sonare until I saw one hiding in the corner of a music store and gave it a try. If I went with the recommended brand I probably would have ended up with a Yamaha (which I don't particularly like after trying quite a few of them out).

Im hoping to get one that would last me thru college and im planning to get a rlly good used one anyway

I have heard a lot of good things about the yamaha and the sonare so i prolly going to look into those

emerson ef6...It's my personal favorite! 800 bucks new, has a solid silver head and open holes.

For $1000:
Used, rebuilt-by-very-good technician, Yamaha 200, $300

Used or new, pro/handmade headjoint, $350 to ($700 would be the top of your listed budget).

That setup (assuming a really good headjoint) will get you by far the most responsive, flexible, lots-of-room-to-develop-as-a-flutist instrument for the money.

If you have to have open holes and B-foot, specifically, for your college level work, a Yamaha 300 series body should do it, though that will be more like $450 or so. But, if you did this you might be able to sell the stock silver CY headjoint for a couple of hundred bucks. Unless you're really interested in jazz flute, though, you can probably wait on open holes and b-foot, until later.

The 'big name' brand flute makers have some pretty nice upgrade flutes that combine a handmade headjoint with a less expensive body. Names would include Azumi, Sonare, Amadeus, etc. (Respecitively Altus, Powell and Haynes brands). You can find these on Flute World, as Kara suggests. I would avoid a Gemeinhardt (available from Flute World, BTW)- though it would likely be better than your no-name flute, it won't get you through your first years of college work.
