For Sale:
Anonymous Antique Cocus and Nickel 8 key English Flute:
This was one of my first project flutes. It had a huge cavern in the barrell. And when I took out the liner the crack stepped.
This flute had been stored in a shed / very dirty/ wood rough.
I did an OK head and barrell repair.
It’s current state is foot keys off, silicon pads on.
The wood is not high quality and knotty. The metal work is rough. Rings are incised.
It was never a first class instrument but will make a good first cheap keyed flute to learn to use keys.
Pitch is high but will play 4:40 with headjoint out a good bit.
Will post photos and video soon.
Am moving house and don’t really have time to fully fix up.
Looking for 150 pounds.
Happy to answer questions via pm or email
All the best,
Patrick
