The soldering may deteriorate and even a slight shock may cause the sound hole to peel off or a gap to form between the soldered parts, causing the flute to lose its sound.
The LEBRET we are exhibiting this time also had a gap in the soldered part of the sound hole.
As shown in the 10th photo, the sound hole of the main tube/foot tube has been re-soldered and re-plated.
The tampo key corks, etc. have all been replaced with new ones and overhauled and adjusted.
