Its in Glasgow if anyone is local and fancies a shot. The keywork feels good but shows some wear. The only ding is a tiny one on the back of the headjoint. There is surface wear as shown and it is dirty. It does not look to have ever been abused or repaired but as the pics show. £150 + p&p which is a bargain for a flute of this quality. Vintage Artley Silver Head Symphony Flute for parts or repair: serial 30355. It comes in a lovely case that has hardly been used so that's in a fantastic condition too. It was serviced about a year ago and is therefore in a full working order. These are just cosmetic things, nothing detrimental to the playing condition of the flute. The flute has the typical scratches and wearing to the plating on the body that you would expect from a well used instrument and there are no major dents. As a woodwind teacher / player l would say that with the B foot and the solid silver head, this would make a good intermediate to professional level flute for anybody wishing to upgrade. Bungs are easily available if you are not keen on open holes but want to try an inline G flute (a set of bungs can cost as little as £3). I bought it to experiment with the inline G and because I was playing material that required a low B. The only reason I'm selling it is that I have another flute that I use regularly and therefore this one isn't getting played. It has a gorgeous, bright sound and is very easy blowing. The flute has inline G, a B foot joint, open holes and a solid silver head. I have for sale a lovely Artley 4-0 flute.
