You can still schedule your own one-to-one appointment with a member of our team to give you a tailored, personalized service when looking to try flutes, piccolos or headjoints - it will just be online or in our workshop in Acton.
Focus on The Haynes Sound
A personal touch
You can still take the opportunity to book a private one-on-one consultation session with Master Headjoint maker Aiven O’Leary in order to personalize and tailor-make your experience in choosing the perfect material, cut and style of headjoint to suit your playing style and ambitions.

An Unrivaled Selection
We had the largest, most extensive and comprehensive selection of Haynes Headjoints ever at the convention and were thrilled wit the response from the flute-players who visited us. Every model, cut, material, combination and crown possible was on display, and several of you found your dream forever headjoints!
