I am expecting a new flute from Casey in the next few months so I thought I would sell the one I have now and use my Dixon in the meantime. The flute that I am selling is is a non-ergo standard, plain with no tuning slide. It’s from 2004, and is good as new, if not better as it has been played and oiled regularaly. If you look at his site you can see how much they cost new. I would hope to get $400(firm).
I also have a very rare Native American flute made in the 1970’s by Louis Webster, some FoolBull replicas, a ton of antique bansuri(also a few new), and a really really nice D# and D kaval, and two gaita.

What wood is the Casey Burns Standard? If it’s Mopane, it’s a good deal (save $100), and if it’s Blackwood, it’s a steal (save $300) over new!
PSST: I just found out this is a Blackwood Standard! Somebody grab it!
What is a non-ergo standard?
holes in line
medium bore
That’s Casey’s Standard D flute, short foot, inline holes.
It’s his hybrid design-not Rudall, not Pratten, but qualities from both.
He also makes a Rudall. I’ve never played one
but it’s said to have a sweet second octave.
I believe the embouchure hole is somewhat
different, too.
The embouchure on this particular flute has a little(intentional) notch cut into it. If you look at Casey’s site you will see many flute where he has done that. I can seem to get the picture to load, but if anyone is interested I can email pics.
Right, the session headjoint, meant to improve volume.
What wood is this–I presume it’s blackwood.
Here is pics of the flute, hope that answers everything…
Just sold the flute. But still have plenty of world flutes up for grabs if anyone is interested.
