Description
William S. Haynes Handmade Custom Flute New
Crafted entirely by hand in Boston by William S. Haynes — the most celebrated name in American flute making — this platinum custom flute represents the pinnacle of the craft. Platinum is one of the rarest materials in flute making, prized for its extraordinary density and resonance. The result is a sound that is unmistakably dark, rich, and complex — with a depth that silver and gold simply cannot replicate.
The 14K rose gold lip plate, riser, and mechanism add warmth and responsiveness, while Straubinger pads, gold springs, and Haynes' renowned pinless mechanism ensure a action that is precise, responsive, and built to last a lifetime.
