Our Price: $ 950.00

Product ID: S3844SelmerFlute

This is a freshly restored and repadded Selmer flute, serial number S-3844. It was cleaned and polished in our repair shop, with all repair work done by our top flute tech, Ben Reece. It is perfect playing condition and ready for a new owner to enjoy.

The instrument is in beautiful shape. It shows no past damages, no dents or dings to the body joints or headjoint. Our repair tech added a reinforcing cover/sleeve over one small segment of the upper rod, as that key was wearing thin from normal use over time. The work is top-notch and hard to spot (see the closeup on picture # 6). It features a coin silver body (90.0% silver) with silver plated keys. The French style keywork is open hole, and it does have have the low B extension on the foot. The headjoint is a Gemeinhardt sterling silver (92.5% silver) and matches the body perfectly.

This is a free blowing flute, with a warm sound and good focus. It is great for advancing students looking for their first open hole, low B flute, and with new pads, it will be ready to serve for a long time to come. The flute will get a final check-up in our repair shop to make sure it is perfect when it ships. It goes out in a decent hard case, which is showing a fair amount of wear, but it is still in perfect working order.
