McNeela African Blackwood Flute - SOLD

Post by jazzman »

McNeela flute - very little playing time, maybe less than an hour.

I bought it as a cheaper flute for travel, just before Covid....so no traveling and I've ended up amassing even more.

Here is what McNeela says on his website:

Designed to a modified version of Pratten’s Perfected flute by Boosey & Co, this McNeela wooden flute delivers the characteristic Pratten big sound but with greater ease and at its current price beats all other premium wooden flutes on sale, hands down.
Key Features of the McNeela African Blackwood Keyless Flute

Beautiful intonation, complex overtones & big volume thanks to the African Blackwood - tuned to A440
Little adjustment needed to keep it in tune
Strong low D
Effortless 2nd octave
Tuned to standard concert pitch A440

Does indeed play quite well.
