Currently offered for adoption a Sweetheart Flute & Piccolo.
THE FLUTE IS SOLD!
The flute is made of maple and is of the new Resonance design, includes a padded nylon case. This is a very good flute. With very good intonation and voice, the bottom D is a real Fog Cutter.
I really like the sound of this flute for slow airs, I can’t tell the difference between the tone of maple and boxwood (both softer, warmer and more sonorous than other woods). Plus the flute is extremely light at only 5 oz. The offset in the tone-holes really helps my tendonitis. New these are $350 plus postage from Ralph Sweet.
Economic Stimulus Package - Piccolo Now $175 ![]()
The piccolo is made of blackwood and is one of Ralph’s older designs (hasn’t made them in about 10-years) based upon a old French piccolo he had and loved (smaller bore). I’ve had numerous piccolos and this is the sweetest sounding of all. I refer to this as the “Practically Perfect Parlor Piccolo” it is just great to play soft and sweet! Includes a nice fleece lined Cavallaro Case. I know I will regret selling this piccolo, so if it doesn’t sell I’ll be happy! I’m asking $175 with U.S. Postage and Insurance included for this one as well. Ralph Sweet is selling new piccolos designed by Walt ($275 in blackwood), they are more powerful, but just don’t have the tone of Ralph’s old ones.
I’ll offer a $15 discount if buyer buys both at the same time. International shipping will be at cost and is currently fairly costly. I can accept PayPal. Feel free to ask questions. I will consider trades and offers. Please contact via PM or Email: sillydill@sbcglobal.net
Thanks for your consideration.
