Thanks so much for the feed back. http://www.americanfluteguild.com/articles/editorial.html The link above had some great info. As a guitar player I know how people can draw conclusions on a certain make or model of instruments before playing, I'm guilty of it . I am not saying that you are drawing a blind conclusion about a instrument or maker, and am not bashing your personal opinion of a single instrument. But I think you are making a conclusion on every flute that Haynes-Schwelm Co made buy your experiences with a few models/flutes. Again I am not bashing you, but is it possible that a few models they made, or a few instruments were of the fine quality as the Haynes flute? They were some of the same people that made the WSH flutes. I was so taken back when I contacted the 'W.S. Haynes' people. They actually sounded offended that I would call their company about a H-S flute.'I guess I was too stupid to know better' It's part of their history for crying out loud. Anyway I have contacted many companies, some mass producers, and some private, but I have never been treated like I was by the Haynes Co. They are rude.... unless you have money to spend with them. Again thanks for the feed back, and remember some of the best sounds can come from a cheap piece of junk.
