I am (finally) selling all of these as they haven’t been played at all in the last 2 or 3 years, as my interest migrated to - and has remained with - stringy things. Prices include shipping within the continental US, unless noted otherwise. Will consider barters/trades for non-flute and whistle items.
All instruments are in good-to-excellent shape. Non-smoking environment. The wooden flute has not been oiled (or played) within the last 2 years; the whistle hasn’t been played within the last 2 years, but has been semi-annually oiled; they have been kept humidified.
Note: I was a wannabe (with disposable income – ah, those were the days!) 3 or 4 years ago when I went through my flute/whistle craze, but never applied myself enough to gain any degree of competence to be able to critically evaluate performance and playing characteristics. Ask questions and I’ll do my best to answer, but there’s no real substance behind my opinions, heh.
Please be patient for my response; my job and life preclude constant email/PM monitoring. Thank you!
