Looking for a keyless flute in blackwood, mopani, or other similarly dense wood, as an alternative to my current boxwood flute. Not targeting any specific maker, curious to see what's out there. Originally was thinking going all the way to delrin, but I think I'll try a denser wood first, see how it...

I bought this Eamonn Cotter flute in 2021 from the original owner. The flute is roughly 4 years old. It is a Pratten style flute with a lined head, with a full tone, in blackwood. The original hard case from Cotter is included. The flute is in excellent playing condition. I recently oiled it with al...

I shipping some piping stuff to Europe a handful of years ago, including a chanter, and I also encountered taxes against the insured amount. That aspect made it especially difficult, either someone had to cover the taxes or I had to risk shipping without insurance. I don't know how the reeds survive...

After playing gigs in tons of places with variable temps and humidity, looking for a delrin flute in D. I would consider just about any maker, but top of mind are: Copley, Ward, McGee, etc. Not interested in M&E due to the weight (I owned one years ago). Ideally in the USA for cheaper shipping, ...

Alternatively, looking for recommendations on makers without crazy wait lists who actively make Bb...

I'd be interesting in hearing about anything from just drones to a full set. Concert pitch, doesn't need working reeds, could generally ...

If anyone has an MK Pro Low C they're looking to sell, let me know!

Bump. Still looking for just about any make in the $50-150 range.

Checking for a used Bb whistle before putting in an international order. Open to a number of makers.

Thanks for looking!

A couple of the local pipers are often seen out with 3/4 sets. I still sport the bass reg, though the reed needs work, so the reg sits empty. Have any uilleann makers offered shuttle drones? They're the most compact of all, a shuttle only around 8 inches long could do all three drones. Christopher B...

Agreed about the quality of videos on OAIM. I've been working through Kevin Crawford's flute videos and Mikie Smyth's piping videos. Both are great. I've also watched one of Niall Keegan's flute videos, and it covered a ton of fairly advanced technique quickly, which was awesome. Eventually I'll che...
