New flute day!

Post by LarryS »

Had some birthday and Christmas money and this flute jumped into my basket.
Its the same brand as my clarinet (Windsor) which in 3 years hasn't put a foot wrong.

Congrats on the new flute. I see that both of the trill pads appear to have small tears in the pad skins. That may not affect playability at the moment, but they are likely to get worse over time. Save yourself some later aggravation and get those tended to soon.

Thanks. I don't have the option to get those replaced at the moment, plus I'm a long way from using them.
