William S. Haynes Handmade Flute - Closed Hole, C Foot SN 30737 WOW

This is a SUPERB William S. Haynes handmade flute.

The Haynes company has made some of the best flutes ever produced and really set the standard for what a fine symphony flute should be about. There are two models produced by Haynes - the commercial model, which is a very fine flute, and the handmade model, which is a phenomenal instrument. This is a great example of the handmade model. Each tonehole is individually hand-soldered, allowing intonation to be individually corrected and adjusted for each note. The head, body, foot, and keys are all solid silver, of course, and every facet of this instrument is individually hand-adjusted. Functionally, this flute is in terrific shape. Pads and action are excellent and it plays great. This is a closed hole flute, offset G, C foot, and is the ultimate doublers flute or for someone who wants a superb high-end flute but never learned open hole technique. Here's a chance to get a fine handmade flute for less than half of the cost new.
