This listing is for the flute with an unfinished overhaul. The flute is not playing and will require several hundred dollars of work to get the new pads sealing well and bumper materials added. It is priced accordingly. If you would like the flute in playing order, see my other listings for the same flute with finished overhaul. One of a kind antique wooden Wm. S Haynes flute #989. Converted to open holes with split E mechanism by master flutemaker Kiko Candelaria. Being an antique it is likely “low pitch” more centered around A-435 vs. Today’s standard of A-440 but in the grand scheme of things 5 cents isn’t so far off and it’s possible to play the flute at modern pitch with a little effort. Granted you may not want to play this flute in an orchestra setting with extremely rigid tuning requirements, it has a very special voice absolutely worth being heard in smaller ensembles such as harp, other flutes, strings, etc. It’s possible a modern headjoint would further bring up the pitch to 440 or beyond. I play one of these myself and have no problem with tuning with others. Repaired crack in headjoint which seals perfectly. Open holes, offset G, split E mechanism, C footjoint. I can recommend a few options. Once of a lifetime chance at a vintage Haynes with these specs!
