I have a couple Barcus-Berry flute pickups for sale. I’ve not used them for several years, but did use them a bit when I was doing the full-time band thing. Original cases and instructions.
Anyway, I can take photos and such. Basically they are in-flute mics, where the mic is screwed into the cork, comes out the crown end. Great sound. Years ago I thought of finding a way to rig up the mic wire to run through the crown hole where the cork stem goes, but never pursued it.
The mic is connected to a sound pack on your belt, and that goes to the board.
Here are a couple links to see what they are like:

I bought them about 10 years ago, new, at about $400 each. They obviously don’t go for that now. I will check the proper model numbers if anyone needs to know that, too.
I had additional corking put them to make them fit the larger wood flute heads.
I’ll consider best offers.
