About Ws Haynes Flute Co.
In the Bay Village district of Boston, with its narrow streets, colonial architecture, glittering gas lanterns, and red brick sidewalks, one building has a small sign in front reading: Wm.S.Haynes Co. This is the home of the world’s foremost maker of artist flutes, and has been for generations.
Master Silversmith William Haynes, the son of a sea captain and a school teacher, opened his flutemaking shop here in 1888, founding the legendary company that still makes flutes for the world’s most prominent soloists, orchestral musicians, chamber musicians, and jazz artists, as well as aspiring students. William Haynes was succeeded in the business by master flutemaker Lewis J. Deveau, who in turn passed the business down to John C. Fuggetta. Now, more than a century after William Haynes set up shop, his company, under the guidance of flutemaker David Chu, still crafts flutes and piccolos that reflect his passion for excellence.
When you play a Haynes flute, you join the ranks of some very distinguished world-class flutists, and follow in the footsteps of such great players as the legendary George Barrere and Jean-Pierre Rampal.

Overhauled to NEW:
It has been completely overhauled to new. The keys and mechanisms are flawless, fast and smooth.
Tone:
This flute plays and sounds just like a Haynes flute. I play a 1971 Haynes and love it. Nothing compares to the smooth rich tone of a Haynes.
The tone is rich, fluid and smooth, with great responsiveness and projection.
All notes, including the highs and lows pop right on out gracefully, with clear clean notes. Great projection with a thick colorful tone.
This flute was designed to US military band specifications. It is very high quality, durable, well made, comfortable to hold and play, with a fantastic tone and ample projection for concert band.

This flute plays on the A=440 hz scale with original headjoint. When I use my new Haynes headjoint, this Haynes plays on the A=442 Hz modern brighter scale.
Case:
Ws Haynes Case Lovely Condition
It will never wear out if you take care if it, and will continue to appreciate in value. It is designed and intended for playing. Use it in concert band, performance, local symphony, for enjoyment, etc.
Quality at Winds101:
We acquired this flute from Europe, from a dealer that overhauls professional grenadilla German name brand flutes and piccolos.
At Winds101, quality is very important. We are not like other dealers that sell on consignment, and ship flutes 'off the shelf' without spending the time and money to make sure they are spot on.
Winds101 attention to detail
At Winds101, we do not sell "used" flutes. Every flute is set up by our professional technician before we ship to you.
