HAVE YOU SEEN AN INSTRUMENT YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT? - should you have any information about any of the lost or stolen instruments listed, please feel free to contact either these people directly, or via The Flute Network. Now, I know from personal experience that it can sometimes be difficult to file such a thing in some places - however, doing so may make the difference in preserving your rights should your instrument be located years from now.



While instruments have indeed been recovered and returned to their original owners, it has nearly always been with the support of this sort - i.e., being able to document ownership and "theft" (such as with a copy of the Police Report). HAVE YOU HAD A THEFT or LOSS? As is the case with any major theft, it is very worthwhile to file a Police Report of the loss as soon as it occurs. (The Flute Network does make every effort, however, to insure that all listings accurately reflect the information that is received!) Contact information is provided with each listing - any and all questions or concerns about an instrument listed here should be addressed to that party. Please be aware - postings here reflect only the information provided to us for that purpose resolving any questions of clear title or ownership rights as regards any specific instrument is well beyond the bounds of any service Flute Network can provide, and that Flute Network accepts no liability in that regard. Items are listed as information is received. This listing of lost and stolen instruments is maintained free of charge as a service to the flute playing community. REGISTRY of LOST and/or STOLEN INSTRUMENTS Updated as of January 6, 2022 I'll have to find out when my piccolo was made- actually both of them- I have a solid silver 'CSS' Gemeinhardt (whose model number was long ago replaced) and a Zentner wood picc, which is no longer made.Flute Network Registry of Stolen Instruments To be fair, it also had an unintentionally asymmetric embouchure hole, making the headjoint just OK, so I had to replace that before she really began to sing. It has a C-footjoint, so it was likely overlooked by B-foot snobs in this country.

My Yamaha 800 series was made in 1998, and took a LONG time to sell before I bought it on eBay. I remember that the Armstrong Heritage flutes were made by a well known master craftsman- who was it, guys, and what era? Also, many new techniques in headjoint making have been taken advantage of, and the newer flutes are usually easier to play well. Modern flutemaking and newer scale designs do make a difference, though. Powell made himself inthe 60's, or a vintage Haynes, or even an original Louis Lot can be a real treasure. Quite a few people play on antique, or even just older flutes which were made by some of the masters of flutemaking.
