It is light, unaffected by humidity in the way wood is, and needs no oiling, which makes it a flute that can live out of its case and go anywhere: sessions, camping trips, the car, or the practice room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flute carries the Tipple-Fajardo wedge in the head joint, which addresses the slight flatness of the second octave in a cylindrical bore and brings the octaves into closer agreement. The head joint is tunable, and the flute plays in the familiar D of Irish traditional music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is in excellent condition and comes with a soft bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Maker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoug Tipple of Indianapolis, Indiana, has made flutes for more than two decades, and his PVC flutes have introduced a great many players to the Irish flute. He developed the Tipple-Fajardo wedge, building on the wedge head that Raphael Fajardo patented in 1977, as a simple insert that corrects the second-octave tuning of a cylindrical bore.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Irish Flute Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67896459755746,"sku":"eQ6yxk0y-WILAec0a","price":104.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2140\/2331\/files\/1Q7A0456_c5342e89-09eb-49d1-b3c9-a3740f101a9e.jpg?v=1793923276","url":"https:\/\/www.irishflutestore.com\/products\/doug-tipple-pvc-irish-flute-eq6y","provider":"Irish Flute Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
