Re: Muramatsu Flute and Yamaha Professional Piccolo For Sale
Kinda sad seeing you sell those lovely instruments. I dread the day I will do the same, maybe 20 years out. My instruments have brought me so much love and joy over the years.

Re: Used alto flute--Artley vs. Armstrong?
Any chance you could play them each first to see if one is a diamond in the rough?

Re: Flute Consistantly Flat
Are you playing in an area where the air conditioning is really cold/warm? In a cold room, I tend to play flatter than in a warm. Also, are you familiar with the concept of warm vs cold air when playing an instrument? It might be time to sit down with a professional player/teacher. Doing could speed...

Re: pearl flutes?
New flutes for most major models are getting so much better than what was available when I and my kids were in school. My wife and I play a Gemeinhardt 3SHB that cost $300 new and added a McKenna custom headjoints that was on sale for $200. You can get better, but not for that price. I'm not sure Mc...

Re: Semi-professional flute upgrade for an amateur player
Are you working with an instructor or a friend who has the sound you are looking for. The best part about looking for a flute is trying them out. You know, it's kind of the ol' "It's the journey that brings you joy" thang. Let me know if I can help.

Don't forget ...
Overheard: Just a reminder to set your clocks forward one hour tonight. This means that bass players will now begin arriving at rehearsal only 30 minutes late, and drummers' Circadian rhythms will now only be off by half a beat.
