Brand New Wm. S. Haynes Q1 Flute - Solid Silver Headjoint (Q Series)
Out of the box and ready for the concert hall! For sale is a Brand New Wm. S. Haynes Q1 Flute, serial number 100421. The Q1 is the cornerstone of the highly acclaimed Haynes Q Series, designed to provide advancing flutists with professional-grade features and materials at a step-up price. Combining world-class materials with the legendary acoustic design that has made Haynes the choice of elite flutists for over a century, the Q1 delivers a sonorous, broad, and vivid tone. It is a stunning instrument built to accommodate years of serious musical growth.
This is the ultimate step-up instrument for the serious advancing dstudent, collegiate music major, or gigging professional who needs a reliable, rich-sounding primary or backup instrument. If you are currently playing on a standard student flute and feel like your sound is "hitting a wall" when you push your dynamics, the solid silver Haynes headjoint on the Q1 will completely open up your tonal palette and give you the projection needed for solo and ensemble work.
The "Haynes Q1" Advantage
- The "Classic" Headjoint: The absolute standout feature of the Q1 is its solid Sterling Silver "Classic Style" Headjoint. It is hand-cut by the master headjoint makers at the Haynes workshop in Acton, Massachusetts—the very same artisans who cut headjoints for their top-tier custom flutes. It offers a wonderfully flexible, colorful, and responsive blow.
- Premium Mechanics: Features a modern pinless left-hand mechanism, French-style pointed key arms, and high-quality stainless steel springs for a lightning-fast, incredibly smooth, and quiet key action.
- Global Craftsmanship: The Q Series utilizes the finest materials sourced in the U.S., precision manufacturing by highly trained partners in the Haynes Beijing workshop, and final finishing and acoustic adjustments by the master makers back in Acton, MA.
- Professional Pads: Factory-equipped with premium Pisoni S2 pads, which feature a firm, machined base for an incredibly secure, precise "pop" when seating against the drawn tone holes.
