Haynes is one of the very top names in American Flutes, favored by famous flautists the world over, including the renowned Jean-Pierre Rampal. This flute is from the company owned by his son, William W. Haynes, and his partner, John Schwelm. This flute is what Haynes-Schwelm termed their “Regular” model, which might be construed as an intermediate level student flute. It is a “C” flute, closed holed and chrome plated. The body is in excellent condition overall, with no dents and only a couple almost imperceptible dings. The chrome is in great shape too, with some missing at the cap, and slight miscoloring on the chrome from wear and age. The flute comes in what is presumed to be its original hard case, and with a cleaning rod.
