This Artley flute is in very nice condition and plays well. It would be great for someone who wants an open hole flute!
Serial number 362676
The pads appear to be in very good condition and they all seal well. The flute plays easily in all registers!
The headjoint is silver. The body is in very good used condition, and the flute goes together as it should. Aside from the usual surface scratches on the body and discoloration in hard-to-reach places that is common for used instruments, the only noticeable issues I see are wear on the thumb key and the finish on the footjoint. Please see pictures.
The hard double case is made to carry a flute and a piccolo! It is in good used condition, although it shows a few signs of its age. Please see pictures. The latches and handle still work well.
The flute comes with 5 silicone plugs which work well to seal the holes, if desired.
This would be a great instrument for a student or for anyone who is interested in a solid open hole instrument!
This flute has not been examined by a professional, but from all appearances and sound, it is a great flute!
I have done my best to describe it, but please contact me if you have any other questions. Thank you for looking!
