Master Silversmith William Haynes, the son of a sea captain and a school teacher founded the legendary company that still makes flutes for the world’ s most prominent soloists, orchestral musicians, chamber musicians, jazz artists, and hobbyists. Now, more than a century after William Haynes set up shop, his company still crafts flutes and piccolos that reflect a passion for excellence.
When you play a Haynes flute, you join the ranks of some very distinguished world-class flutists, and follow in the footsteps of such great players as the legendary George Barrere and Jean-Pierre Rampal, as well as contemporary artists such as Michel, Debost, Claudi Arimany, Jeanne Baxtresser, Kathleen Chastain, and Gary Schocker.

Haynes Handcrafted Custom Headjoints
The William S. Haynes Company manufactures four styles of headjoints for our handmade flutes at no extra cost. These options complement the musical needs I have of flutists in terms of tone and response. All Haynes headjoints possess rich dark sounds with lively response. Each Haynes headjoint is unique and special. Below find a description which will assist you in describing the advantages and differences of each style
Haynes Newbury
This headjoint features a comfortable modern lip plate with moderate resistance suitable for most playing styles. Appealing to your creativity, the tone emphasizes higher overtones with a vivid, sparkling sound.
Haynes Piedmont
This headjoint affords modest resistance to create a warm, velvety tone with colors suited for both soloist and orchestral player.
Haynes Sudbury
This headjoint is more traditional, modeled from the vitage Haynes and Louis Lot flutes known for their deep, dark sound with ample resistance.
