Tell us something.: I've been playing whistles since 2010. I love how varied whistles are in their design, construction, tone, and handling. Though I've largely settled on what I enjoy playing, I'm still a sucker for an interesting new design.

FS - Bleazey Olivewood D Flute

Post by AngelicBeaver »

$510 shipped in the US. New, these are $750 (580GBP), per Phil Bleazey's website.

After some internal debate, and talking with Ed (who gifted me the flute), I have decided to sell it. It has a warm, full tone that is lovely. The Carbony is a little louder and harsher by comparison, BUT I can play the Carbony without a care in the world, and that's worth a lot to me. Also, I'm trying to round up a few whistles for comparison videos, and the sale will give me some extra room to make purchases.

No cracks or leaks. I think it went to be tuned up by Jon Cornia at some point.

Here's the brief demo I made today:

Here's a comparison I made with the Carbony when it was too cold:
