Re: how much for a de Keyser?

Hmmm and there's me looking for offers over £200 for mine. Think I had better edit my post and up the asking price a bit.
As it has been lying out of its box I have tended to pick it up and play it recently. It is a very nice flute indeed. As I mentioned in my Ad, probably not a beginners flute.
