So Marty, did you spring the 4 or 5 grand for a Powell or Haynes or did you opt for a nice Gemeinhardt, openhole,low B foot, silver head joint? That's a great compromise piece and a quality flute and goes for what nowadays.......1000-1500? Prices are unbelievable anymore. I remember when that Gemeinhardt sold for 350 and a new Haynes was 1200!
