Vintage Silver Open - Hole Artley Flute 9 - 0
Item History & Price
For your consideration: a vintage silver open-hole Artley flute with a low-B key and an inline G key. I received it for my birthday back in the 1970’s and played it for several years. More recently (in the 2000’s), my aunt used the flute, replacing the pads and tuning it up. After my aunt died, the flute returned to me and has been sitting unused in our study. It shows signs of wear, of course, but no major scratches or dings. The tone is still quite good -- although my playing is ...not. This would be a good flute for a hobbyist or collector.
It does come complete with the original case, the original plastic rod, and an additional tube cleaner. The interior of the case is in very good condition; the outside is in fair condition; it has seen better days. At one point, someone (I assume myself) scratched the serial number into the case for identification. I’ve tried to capture the scratch in the pictures -- the numbers are not very noticeable on the black case.
Serial number 429171.
