I have a "like new" copy of Conal O'Grada's "Irish Traditional Flute Technique" spiral bound book with CD. I don't remember what I paid for it but would take $25 USD with $5 shipping (USPS - CONUS) paypal.

I am reluctantly letting go of my Silverwood Flute made by Tony Millard and Sophie Matthews.

Joseph Morneaux makes wooden flutes in A G F.

Having had both Sweetheart G & F flutes (which I sadly sold) my opinion is that the F was easier to play, more pleasing to hear and missed the most.

Elf Song whistles make whilstles with GHP fingering and whistles using the Galician fingering system utilizing a left hand thumb hole as well as a 7th hole for the right hand pinky. I have one of the latter if you may be interested.

I have a 3 piece Dixon low D I am ready to part with. Email me if you're curious.

As far as a capo goes - if you put the capo on the third fret then the form used for G (with no capo) becomes Bb, C becomes Eb and D becomes F, etc.
