The Delrin Intermediate Keyed Flute

Introducing the enchanting Delrin Intermediate Keyed Flute - your magical companion on an unforgettable musical journey.

Unleash your creativity with a flute expertly crafted to provide exceptional playability and durability, making it the perfect choice for both beginners and seasoned musicians alike.

This is a superb value flute with a great low D. With loads of volume, it's ideal in a fast session and for those wishing to upgrade from a non-keyed flute.

It’s also a perfect flute for those not-so-wood-friendly venues (like festivals, traveling, etc). Or you can leave it assembled at home and easy to reach, always available for a quick play.

"Love, love, love this flute. I leave it out on the table, I pick it up, and play it no muss no fuss, no worries about cracked wood in dry winter conditions." Marcia F.

“My keyed Irish flute from McNeela is a beautiful flute, the tone is rich and it looks impressive.” - Robyn M, Australia

A normal fully keyed flute made from African Blackwood would cost well over €2,000 so our version is great value!

This flute must be tried to appreciate its gorgeous tones and great intonation and is perfect for those wishing to test the keyed flute waters; we offer a 30 day trial wherein you can send it back to us for a full refund if you’re not 100% satisfied.

“I’ve been playing/teaching/recording for half a century and this has become my favorite flute. This is a very good instrument.” - P G Mulvaney

Delrin® is a tough, lightweight and durable acetal polymer with inherent low friction, low wear, low noise, low moisture pick-up and excellent spring back properties and makes for an excellent low maintenance flute as it is not subject to cracks due to dryness or stress at the joints.

This Delrin® flute is made to play and sound as closely as possible to the Irish wooden flute. The traditional elliptical embouchure is standard and provides a wide range of tonal flexibility.

“My Delrin keyed Irish flute is so much more friendly than a wooden flute. I am loving the keys, also using the Masterclass and learning a great deal. Really love this flute!" - Sheila, Ireland

Free Padded Hard Case

Your flute comes with its own robust hard case which is foam-lined on the inside to protect the instrument(s) inside. This acts as a shock absorber to help shield your flute from any of those scratches or blemishes you get. And there’s space inside for that spare tin whistle we know many of you like to travel with.

“Very nice flute! Love the tone and the tuning of it!” - José L, USA

KEY FEATURES

Tuning Slide

The tuning slide means you can adjust the pitch to adapt to any playing situation from a session environment to outdoor recitals and everything in between. Also handy if your venerable fellow musician is playing slightly sharp or flat.

Tone

6 Key Set Up

Keys are mounted on integral pins, following traditional design. All keys are made from nickel-silver. Foot keys are the traditional articulated design, with the key and pin locations positioned to give a quick response and a very positive seal. Keyed for Eb, F♮ (x2), G#, Bb and C♮.

Design

This is a tapered bore, simple system flute based on originals made during the 1800's, with the greatest influence being the flutes made by Hawkes and Son of London.
