The flute was made in 2001, and I bought it used in 2007. It's been well taken care of and is in good playing condition. Kevin Crawford gave it a toot at a workshop and had Good Things to say about it. The flute suffered a drop about three years ago, resulting in scuffs on two of the silver rings an...

Good list, thank you. There are a few on it that I don't know. But I have some that I don't see in your list: Alan Kelly & John Kelly - Fourmilehouse Brendan Mulholland, Brendan Hendry, Paul McSherry - Tuned Up Brian Finnegan - The Ravishing Genius of Bones (not flutey, but since you have Flook ...

Nothing too special playing-wise, but I'm pleased how the warmth and the edge of the flute come through. Oh yes, and I realize that I'm skipping a beat at the end, but it's too late to...

This is _not_ a bump

To help y'all pass your time, I've recorded a new sample clip.

Cheers -- Joel

*shameless bump*

Well, according to the downloads of the sound sample, there seems to be some interest, but nothing tangible yet.
I have asked Tom Aebi for a quote to have the crack fixed professionally, and I'm open to take care of it ahead of the sale.
Watch this space ...

This sale is currently postponed because someone local is trying out the flute. Thanks for looking.

Having made the jump to keys two months ago, it is time to pass on my keyless instrument. It's a 2001 Grinter in Grenadilla (aka. "Blackwood") that I bought from the original owner in 2007. Michael Grinter is a true master of his craft and his flutes are used by some well known players. Th...

It would indeed. Thanks again.

Brett, I have a McGee that I'd be willing to part with. It's a sweet instrument, but I never got the hang of it for some reason. I'll PM you the details.

Klaus Steinort plays Aebis.

And so it happened: I'm on the road with my family, and in the chaos of things my assembled flute takes a tumble. It's a blackwood Rudall type, and it cracked at the joint between the two hands. Fortunately, the joint is held together by a silver ring holds up just fine, but I can't attempt a repair...
