Loren- THANK YOU so much for your thoughtful response--makes perfect sense. You're right, back in the early 2000's there was definitely an Irish Music craze and waitlists were quite long. Your thoughts about switching to a low maintanence delrin flute was exactly what I was thinking--something I nev...

Hey Dan- Thanks for the reply--do you primarily play the flute? If it were a whistle, I wouldn't worry about it--however, the flute is worth, what north of $3000 at this point? Basically, it's an asset sitting around if I'm not playing it, so it's been on my mind. Plus, I just spent twice as much on...

Hi all- I'm selling my flute--unfortunately. I'm not convinced it's the best thing to do, but I literally never play it. The flute has rarely been used--and as a result, the head joint developed a hair line crack twice--the first time it was repaired by Thomas in his workshop in 2011, and the second...

Hi all- I used to be on these forums a LOT back in the early 2000's, but then stopped playing music. I'm wrestling with the notion of selling my Thomas Aebi flute--I have barely used it, but have a hard time thinking about letting it go. Have any of you been in this position?
