Lori Bell......just listen...she's got super technique and sound...and the lady can jam!

Yes.. i do still have the Lamberson head joint for sale
It has a Gold embouchure plate and is silver....asking $500

I like my DiZhao ..a bit more than my Jupiter

Sorry...For some reason i thought you were looking for a HJ for a Lamberson
After re-reading the post i see your selling a complete flute. My apologies

I have a Lamberson H J...for sale...gold plated emb. $500

It may be an acronym for the term "coin silver"

This is a Solid silver open hole b foot.....Ser # is 125...written on the barrel How old is this flute???? The lady who owns it thought she bought it new in the 70's I have a hard time believeing this ...the flute looks like it could be built MUCH earlier than this. On the Barrel its engraved KURT G...

I have a Lamberson HJ for a C flute
It came with my 1980"s Sankyo "artist" model flute that i picked up used
There is a Jack Moore headjoint that came along as well that i prefer.
If anyone would like this HJ ...i would sell it for $500.

Should'nt it read Jupiter "Carnegie" edition?

Which Head joint would have the best resale value.
Landell or a Jack Moore?

Good point...i may not like the HJ ....I play an an Altus 807. I'm primarily a saxophonist who plays flute . Although the flute playing in gigs and practicing in the last couple of years has been trumping the sax. At the same time the Muramatsu arrived i recieved a Haynes commercial flute from 1948 ...

i bought it...and its the worst flute i've ever played.
Word of caution!...don't EVER buy a flute without playing it...EVER!

The Powell flute i repadded was built in 1977 ....it was built with traditional felt pads.
I brought it back to traditional...and for some reason i can not explain...it seems to play 'bigger"
i noticed it..and when the owner started playing it, that was her remark as well...kinda spooky!

Looking at possible purchase of a Muramatsu M120 from the early 90's silver head..plated body. Anyone familiar "playing experience with this model? i'm playing an Altus 807 and i'm looking for more tone!... I like to play Jazz standards..my favorite sounds on flute come from Frank Wess.. James Moody...

Yes, try it with some tape first to see if you like it.
I also use the Bo pep finger LH rest as well.
Good Luck!
