nifty looking flute. I would love to try one. He's a fantastic flutemaker. Feck I would probably have to order one...

thanks beforehand

Hi all I have a nice little keyless G flute for sale. This has all features common on a standard pitch flute (good blackwood, lined headpiece, sterling rings, standard wall thickness). It plays like a dream, very very powerful.. here' s a picture of it http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr347/michel...
