I am tempted to purchase a used Gilles Lehart or Delrin flute, which seems to be in my college student price range. If someone is selling a Gilles Lehart or Delrin flute I would be curious to hear the prices. I am located in California so stateside shipping is preferred.

Thanks!

I'm in the market for a Lehart, Barna Gabos, or any relatively affordable wooden flute!

I am located in San Diego, CA. I would prefer a semi-affordable flute so that most likely means keyless but I'm open all for sale flutes if I can tend my budget a bit.

Thanks, Owen!

Hey!

I'm interested, can I have your email?

thanks, Owen

So I got the flute! I like it. It's a bit more mellow and sweeter than I expected, you can really tell the maker primarily makes baroque flutes or at least that's how it feels. But that being said it still can hold up in a session. I really enjoy it. It looks nice as doesn't take a lot of air the to...

Hello all, Just bought a Fabio di Natalie Rudal model flute 2nd hand without playing it. Heard a clip of it playing and liked it plus his baroque flutes look top notch so I felt comfortable buying the flute. Still waiting on shipping though. Anyone have any thoughts on this maker, and/or more specif...

hello all,

thanks for the comments and advice, found a nice half set for my asking price! Plays pretty well very happy.

You are right it is slightly vague. I just updated the information. I am in north America I do not have bellows or a chanter, but I have a way of getting a cheap chanter so if someone is willing to sell a set without a chanter to keep the cost down that would work for me. Thanks, Owen I would respe...

Hello all, As a poor college student money is tight, but I do have some funds set aside. Not looking for anything of super super quality just looking for a reasonable set of a reasonable amount of money. I am looking for... - 1/2 set in D with bag and bellows or - chanter-less 1/2 set D with bag and...

Just out of curiosity what are the tonal differenced between boxwood and let's say Blackwood. It's very hard for me to hear the differences unless I play the flute in person and I have never seen a boxwood flute at a session.

thanks

Do you have facebook can I ask you a few questions about the flute? I am thinking about ordering one. Thank you.

Hello, I am looking for a goldie low d for a friend. He plays in the celtic ensemble at Berklee and really needs to upgrade his instrument. He wants to upgrade only once and get a goldie he can use for sessions and performances. If you have a goldie laying around or know of someone who does he will ...

In reference to the posts about Kim And Steve Bagpipes Here is the original video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8roSLvzf6L8 here is it used as an advertisement on their SoundCloud soundcloud.com/steve-widdicombe-797164513/northumbrian-smallpipes-sound-sample-1 This really frustrates me because I w...

Cool thank you all feedback is appreciated. Ever since I got that book I realized the importance of playing closed and how much more difficult learning the pipes would be. Regardless I'm excited! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihq0dbwFQsE I have been listening to his playing a lot recently the tigh...
