Wow, we have Terry McGee's head for sale here, and his body in a wooden box for sale in another thread! Terry, hope all is well.

Really nice clips. I bet that Abell headjoint has a lot to do with the sound.

Actually, on the Boehm flute, the right-hand pinkie is depressed the majority of the time. It's usually only raised for D natural in the first and second octaves. So when this classically-trained flutist (me) picks up a keyless flute, the pinkie wants to stay down, on the body of the flute.

Jim, now you're going to have to get 10 gig bags.

Flute World has a huge selection of flute bags of various styles. Some of these can be pretty high-end (and expensive!). Here's one that seems to be a good value - http://www.fluteworld.com/index.php?action=prod&wart=52793&ppk=ccab . I like the ebags downloader backpack, at http://www.ebags....

Wow!

When to you get to bring it home, Jessie?

You're 15 days too late (for April fools).

Yes, I have a Peter Noy blackwood headjoint for a Boehm flute available. Beautiful, and has a very woody sound. Please PM me if interested.

Dana

Terry, you took the words right out of my mouth. I've nothing to add.

Dana

Take it to a woodwind or band repair person. They will be able to fix it in less than 2 minutes, and it shouldn't cost much.

The Gallagher flute is sold. (I'm waiting for a check).

The Noy headjoint is still for sale - make me an offer.

Oh, and by the way, I'm also selling a wood Powell professional Boehm flute for $8900. If there's any interest, let me know and I'll post pictures.

Hi all: I'd like to sell my John Gallagher Rudall style blackwood flute. The flute has a lined headjoint, silver rings, 4 keys (G#, right hand Bb lever, short F, and D#. It also has a thumb hole for C natural (in a very comfortable position). This small-holed flute has a surprisingly big, focused so...

Oh well... At least she looked good. (except she needs to drop that left elbow).
