I am currently taking a hiatus from making new flutes to pursue my career as a fiction writer and won't be taking orders for the forseeable future. If you are interested in reading about my new novel, The Mariner's Curse, which is in bookstores now, please visit my writing website at: www.johnlunn.com |

| CUSTOM DESIGNS
From restoration and special key work to body & headjoint reconstruction, we can work with you to improve the ability of your flute. We also specialize in custom designs and modifications to improve hand position.The following section describes these designs. |
"Thank you very much for fixing my flute. It
is just what I wanted. I have no trouble at all balancing it. You did a
wonderful job translating the fingernails into placement of keys. I wasn't
sure how that would work, but it turned out beautifully. I will tell everyone
about your work!"
Laura Doty Indigo, Vermont.

Statistics show that between 50% and 70% of all musicians experience some physical problems in their profession. Whether for comfort or stress relief there are many comfortable designs that can be modified to any flute to improve it's ability, no matter what make of flute. More detail on deciding what modifications would work for you are available on our modifciation pages. |
| RAISED C# BUTTON - $225.00
The index finger key can be raised and placed in several more comfortable positions (ie: higher up, closer to the Bb key, further out from the rods) eliminating cramping and significantly improving flexibility. |
| LEFT HAND EXTENSIONS - $225.00 per key
A reconstruction of the left hand keys minimizes wrist angulation by reducing the reach to the A, G and Gþ keys with piccolo style finger buttons. On the offset model it can eliminate strain altogether. On the inline model the lightweight buttons can be extended slightly or very far out as needed to accommodate any reach without adding weight or extra spring tension.Consultation will determine which and how many keys need alteration |
| RIGHT HAND BUTTONS - $110.00 per key
To accommodate a very short thumb, short finger reach or exceptionally long right hand fingers, buttons can be added to the right hand keys to improve your facility. |
| LUNN THUMB WING - $400.00
The Lunn thumb wing is easier, more comfortable and provides stronger balance and control for this critical key. |
| ANGLED FOOTJOINT CLUSTER - $950.00
This very popular design brings the footjoint keys closer to your reach by angling the rollers towards the finger. It also eliminates the need for a D# roller and the tendency to rotate the wrist while trying to reach the low notes. |
| GIZMO - $125.00
Our gizmo key is designed to your reach, whether over the rollers, the D# key, the traditional spot or wherever you need it. |
| CUSTOM KEY REPLACEMENT - prices on request
With a working knowledge of the many difficulties and conditions that can injure your hands, we can design a custom configuration to suit your particular needs. |
| COMPLETE KEY REPLACEMENT - prices on request
If you feel that adding buttons and extensions may lessen the resale value of your flute, we can completely replace the keys we modify, allowing you to restore it to it's original condition whenever you wish. |
