The flute is in remarkable good condition, both in appearance and in the way it plays. The sound is rich yet not dark and it has a singing like quality to it in all three octaves which I really like. There are absolutely no scratches or dents on the body or keyes.The pads are Straubinger which are said to be the best out there. It comes in it's original case which is also very well preserved as you can see from the pictures and a brand new Altieri case cover. Please don't hesitate do contact me with any questions you might have. Thank you.On Oct-08-08 at 22:07:29 PDT, seller added the following information:I just wanted to add the fact that this flute was manufactured (1959) while Mr. Powell was still in charge of the company ( he sold it in 1964). It is said that Powell flutes manufactured before 1964 are some of the best out there and having played this flute I can easily see why. Place a Bid!
