A friend of mine, Mark Keown of Newcastle Co Down has a Clinton flute for sale.
He asked me to post here knowing that he is likely to get some genuine interest from flute players.
It is a fine example of the simple system design, big bored, big holed flute that behaves not unlike the Rudall.
I played it for about six months when my own Monzani was away for repair. It has great tone and volume and helped improve my breathing techniques no end; so that when I got my Monzani back it played like a gem.
Mark has had the flute overhauled and fully serviced recently and it is in fine order. He is looking for offers over £800, which in my opinion is well worth it. All 8 keys fully operational, recently padded etc., and in general very good order.
If you are interested then drop him an email at markkeown7@hotmail.com
Clinton owners - can you please let me know the serial number and type of flute your Clinton is for our study on this intriguing maker at http://www.mcgee-flutes.com/clinton.html
(Breandan, I've emailed Mark for info on the one for sale)

Re: Clinton Flute for sale
I have a Clinton. Unless there is an unmentioned problem, that sounds like a good buy.
