Dc pro is my own brand that I designed myself and had made for me with my specs. I learned flute making while working for William S. Haynes flute company in Boston. They make flutes that start at 8 500.00 My job was to solder the tone holes on these flutes... Which was a very critical job and had to be perfect to assure perfect intonation. I was very fortunate to have first hand experience in flute making while working there. So I decided to make my own flutes saxophones clarinets trumpets french horns and trombones.
