The HAYNES Q1 RE flute, made in Taiwan and the USA, is a technical and expressive instrument. Its unique headjoint, with a one-of-a-kind cut, provides a warm, rich sound and exceptional flexibility.

The flute can be equipped with a 14K gold core, and as standard, a solid silver headjoint made in the Haynes workshops in the USA, and a body and mechanism in silver-plated nickel silver. The drawn tone holes and the soldered D# tone hole contribute to better resonance.

With its offset keywork, hollow pads, and precise mechanism, the HAYNES Q1 RE flute offers a smooth and enjoyable playing experience. It has a round and harmonious sound, in line with Miyazawa flutes.

The advantages of this flute lie in the quality of its headjoint handcrafted by Haynes, which adds real value. The warm sound and expressiveness of the instrument are appreciated by musicians.

However, it's important to note that the flute's keywork can be delicate and requires regular maintenance to ensure its durability. Moreover, this flute has a powerful sound projection and a remarkable sound breadth, which may suit some musicians but might be perceived as too intense by others.

The HAYNES Q1 RE flute offers a warm sound, exceptional flexibility, and quality craftsmanship. It's ideal for musicians looking for a technical and expressive instrument.
