Condition: Restored Antique. Newer pads. Expertly repaired cracks in the headjoint & barrel.
A surprisingly good playing flute that plays excellent at A440. Nice rich tone and capable of a good amount of power for a smaller holed flute. The F is intonated so that it plays best in tune with the F key vented. Would be a good candidate for the F to be brought up a bit (by a local woodwind repair tech) if one was planning on playing Irish trad exclusively on it. You can still lip the F up without venting but it would just make it more “hands off” in terms of intonation. Really nice flute – especially for the price – for the player with smaller hands who wants a fully keyed flute at an entry level price. Pads are in great shape.
