Advice on buying first keyless Flute (Hammy Hamilton)

[kkrell]

Here's a Hammy block-mounted 8-key flute recently advertised in Ireland at

Using my detective skills, I'd say with a fair degree of certainty that the seller is Gary Duffy. He has a track of slip jigs of his own composition and arrangement on Wooden Flute Obsession volume 3, although on that track (recorded in 2005) he used a Sam Murray flute. You can rely on him.

I wouldn't mind having a fully keyed foot joint for my 6-key, but it is pricey to get them other bits.

The original flute I mentioned below is now sold

I had a look at it and the short F had been glued down by the seller as it didn’t work.
For that and other reasons I wasn’t interested.
