Today's featured preowned piccolo: Experience the sweetness & warmth of Kingwood with the response and ease of Powell.

Visit our website for more information!

The Woodwind Fix-It Tool is the ideal gadget for every flutist. One side is a spring hook and the other is a small screwdriver. This must-have comes in 4 colors and 2 sizes and can attach to your instrument case or bag. Perfect for those hard-to-reach adjusting screws and springs!

This preowned Haynes Alto Flute is a great find! It features a sterling silver headjoint and body, and has an impressively brisk response along with a warm, fluid sound in all registers. It also boasts drawn tone holes and a wave style headjoint! This is an amazing Vintage Alto Flute from 1947. If Haynes made a Custom Handmade Alto flute today it would cost between $18K and $20K!

07/13/2021

Did you know that the piccolo headjoint corks come in different sizes? We prefer larger corks because they give us the freedom to customize and shape each individual cork! This particular cork was sanded down to fit a Yamaha YPC-32.

This preowned Kuiper Alto Flute is a great find! Dick Kuiper founded his flute workshop in the Netherlands in the early 1950's and is well known for wooden, silver and gold flutes as well as his alto flutes. He was 2nd flutist in the Concertgebouw Orchestra and took on Eva Kingma as his protege in 1975. She took over his company in 1981. This alto flute has an impressively brisk response along with a warm, fluid sound in all registers. It also features soldered tone holes and a wooden, wave lip plate!
