Hi –
I have a few of whistles collecting dust that would be glad of a new home. They’ve lost favor over time (the Burkes were my first high end instruments but I got a Sindt D and just never pick them up anymore). While I was waiting for the Copeland I picked up a wooden flute (then another, then another until I got a Hamilton). I play the flute daily and pick up the Copeland only because I hate to see such a beautiful instrument languish. Both brass instruments are unpolished.
The Burke’s are old style (no “O” ring, no bump on the tuning slide) Both wide bore, one composite and one brass:
$ 50 (or BO) each plus postage
The Copeland Low D comes with the cloth bag. It is serial number 2180. We could work out a trade for one of the following:
A high end wooden whistle of comparable value like a Thin Weasel or Abell
or
An M&E or Seery polymer flute
or
Best offer $300 or above (plus postage).
Please contact me with any questions. I’ll leave the Copeland open for a week to see what’s up. I’ll advise if someone takes the Burkes.
Thanks. (Sorry if it’s a little long)
Dan
