Hammy Hamilton keyless flute in blackwood, partially lined head, pristine condition, no scratches, cracks, repairs, etc., exactly as it left Hammy's shop. The flute is about 7 years old, well maintained.
Includes Hammy's cherry wood case.
$1,000.00 USD plus shipping. I prefer to sell in the US to avoid customs hassles overseas.
These are $1,200 new. Save $200, no waiting, and no break-in period.
Nope, just raising money toward a new flute (and paying off medical bills--I broke my leg on March 16 this year, and the surgeon's invoices are coming due).
So glad I live in NZ. We have a better medical system including Accident Compensation (rather mis-used).
Flute sounds nice but I have no spare dollars.
LOL, I wish. Instead, it was stepping into a pothole while out for a jog (doing the old man shuffle) on the neighborhood streets. I did St. Paddy's Day gigs the next day with my leg propped up on pillows, swallowing painkillers. Yay.
My insurance covered most of it, but the co-pay still adds up, especially after having a steel plate and seven screws installed. And 3 months of physical therapy....
Yeh, this Hammy can hold it's own at a session, but it also has a creamy, dark chocolate tone that's just beautiful. Hard to part with, but I have other priorities....

Sorry to hear about your injury, Will.
Hopefully it at least happened at the end of a a bluebird spring-skiing day at Big Sky?

OW! Sorry to hear that.
We are not made of rubber anymore, eh?

Re: Keyless Hammy Flute for Sale
I've played the flute that Will is selling.
It has this rich reedy dark tone. It is not a power session breaker flute like an Olwell or timid like a R&R.
In wine terms, it is strong but colorful, with a slightly oaky aftertaste, perky and complex, but not agressive.
And no, Will did not pay me to say this. Well, he did pay me, but it was in blood.

In case it wasn't clear -- the flute is quite fine and well worth the price

Re: Keyless Hammy Flute for Sale
The flute has sold and is happy being played by a new owner.
