FS : Grinter 5 keyed middle joint in cocobolo in C [SOLD]

SylvainBarou · Post by **SylvainBarou** » Wed Sep 06, 2006 7:31 am

I am selling a Grinter body in C. it has 5 keys (F#, G#, Bb, Eb and long Eb, equivalent to G#, Bb, C, F and long F keys on a D flute) and it's in cocobolo.
It is made for playing with a D Grinter embouchure and footjoint. and it plays really good. it also looks beautiful with either a blackwood or a cocus embouchure.

it's very good when you have a Grinter D flute, because it makes you have a fully keyed C flute for a very interesting price !

I have recorded it on a slow air on the Comas album :

inquiries welcome PM or e-mail.
Thanks,

Sylvain

Hi Sylvain. I tried playing your sound file and there was nothing there.

If and when you see Stephane Morvan again, could you ask him when my flute might be ready?

And also please make sure he knows that I want the large embossed rings and the rings on the tenons?

I see he has a new Boosey style flute out now, have you tried that?

Thanks! John Gaasland.

Hi John,

try to go there and choose track 7 :

I will see Stéphane next week, I will tell him.
The Boosey model is magic

I am very impressed by his new model. both in D and Eflat. Finally the flute I was dreaming about !
his website will be ready soon. http://www.skopavel.com
with hopefully a lot of pictures and sound samples.

cheers,

Sylvain

Ravishing performance. Much to be learned listening
to this.

Hello Sylvain. If you should bump into
Alan Stivell Cochevelou, please ask him what make of Irish flute he played
on his "Renaisance of the Celtic Harp" album. Thanks.

Actually I think it was Alan Kloatr, not Stivell. But it would still be interesting to know what flutes were being played back then.

Yec'hed mat!

Hi Sylvain. Can you ask Stephane if he has photos of his standard 8 key flute that someone can post? I saw photos of yours but I still haven't seen his revised model. Would love to see one with the wide embossed rings. Thanks, John.

the sleeve notes etc say otherwise.
I feel Sylvain can settle this.

I'm probably thinking of a different LP... E Langonned perhaps.

Double Dang. That's what I wanna sound like when my embouchure grows up.

The flute certainly sounds nice in the lower register, but some of the notes in the high register seem out of tune to me. I don't know if it's the flute or the player. I know it's not easy playing airs on any instrument, it's very demanding
