For sale -
Aebi Bb flute in boxwood with silver rings, a long ‘C’ key and a partially lined head-joint.
I bought the flute back in October 2005. The tenon going into the barrel has been slightly out of round ever since I’ve owned it. The tuning slide came loose which I just had repaired and it’s back to playing great. The boxwood keeps the weight down, for a Bb it’s quite light. The finger stretch is almost the same as my ‘D’ on the top hand, and slightly larger on the lower hand.

That lists a standard Bb flute with silver rings at 2150CHF
Looks like he charges 250CHF per key,
So new it’d be 2400CHF total for this flute, or about $2,216USD
I’m selling to help pay for my trip to the Fleadh Cheoil and some travel afterwards.
My asking price is $1650 OBO + shipping
Alongside my ‘D’ flute for scale
