Haynes #20388

A Super Thin .011” Flute

Wm. S. Haynes Flute serial #20388 made in 1949. Solid silver, Handmade French Model, soldered tone holes, open hole, pointed arms, .011”, no adjustment screws, inline G, B-foot, Bb shake, forged keys and touches, gold springs, felt pads, traditional scale.

Haynes #20388 is in good mechanical and cosmetic condition. But the pads are only sealing well enough for testing purposes. This flute is exceptionally light at just 409 grams—lighter than most modern C-foot flutes. This flute was well taken care of as most thin flutes tend to acquire some dents over time. The tubing of our flute is in pristine condition. An overhaul is recommended for professional performance. It comes in its original case in excellent condition.

Maker’s mark and serial number on body only. Monogram on headjoint.

The embouchure hole measures 10.3 x 12.2 mm.

Sounding length is 635 mm.
