Notes:In the above illustration, letter C is the diameter as in the table above.
It would be helpful if dimensions A and B were included by the purchaser also.
Headjoints may be fitted for larger diameters than intended by use of teflon tape or paper
wrapped around the joint. Order for the smaller diameter flute when planning to use in more than one instrument.
