FS D keyless flute Rosewood

D keyless flute four piece Pratten copy with sliver rings and tunable sliding head made from rosewood (the rosewood is from Brazil South America)
The maker is Alan Ginsberg in Wales U.K http://www.hgt.gwynedd.gov.uk/UilleannPipes/Flutespage.htm

The flute is stamped twice with the makers name A A Ginsberg and the Welsh dragon once above the first note hole and other stamp on the foot end piece. Thread hemp is used on the flute for assembling flute together


I got the flute on Friday 12 March 2004 and have not played it very much.

The flute has a lovely soft tone sound and is easy to play with no hard blowing to get the low or high octaves.

The condition of the flute is excellent as the flute has no makes or cracks and looks great. Included is a wooden case lined in purple velvet.

The flute length is 650 mm and the length after tuning flute to A = 440Hz is 655 mm the weight of the flute is 290 grams


I will sell the flute for £330 GBP (602.116 USD) (479.522 EUR) plus postage. I will take paypal or bankdraft.


Cheers

Two questions:
Is there anything different about this flute from the last time you posted it here</a](http://chiffboard.mati.ca/viewtopic.php?t=28640">here</a)> in a thread which was subsequently locked?

Do you actually want Americans to pay in thousandths of a dollar? :laughing:

Hi Chang

You really need to stop this incessant atempt to sell this flute. You bumped your original thread four times, and this one twice, and there was at least one thread prior to that original one that you had started, plus all the other forums you have posted in.

I don’t really care, but it is blatantly contrary to forum policy. Just thought I’d warn you!

Then perhaps a PM would have been more appropriate.You’re welcome for the Bump Fergie :smiley:

Since this is the fifth thread devoted to selling this flute, I think it is obvious the supply/demand curve is not in your favor, Ferg. And just in case the moderators want to check out that claim, here are the links:

Five you are looking at.

I wish you the best of luck selling the flute Ferg, but I think you probably need to a) lower the price and/or b) list it somewhere else, preferably a place where people can’t see that you’ve been trying to sell this instrument since two months after you got it. I noticed you haven’t listed it on Brad](http://www.firescribble.net/flute/exchange.html%22%3EBrad) Hurley’s site, so you might try asking him. I don’t know if you have a pawn shop or used musical instrument store near you, but sometimes they buy instruments as well. You’ve tried eBay, but you might try lowering the reserve, since you did get some bids. And if you don’t want to drop the price, you might consider being a bit patient. I’m very sorry it didn’t work out for you, and I’m sure it is a wonderful instrument in the right hands, but you don’t want to get Dale on your case for rule violations, so you might want to quit while you’re ahead. Cheers.
