Rudall Carte & Co. 8-key Cocus & Nickel Silver

 

 Condition: Antique (Read Below)

Plays at A440hz with slide extended about 1/2".  This flute would have been intended for a higher pitched A, but with a bit of adapting by the player, can be played at modern pitch. Medium sized holes. 

Nice energy with a sweet second octave. 

Keys could use repadding & some detail cleanup work. The top 6 keys all function (Eb sticks a bit).  The bottom C/C# keys mechanically function but would need some fine tuning to work/seal consistently.

Repaired/sealed cracks evident in barrel, right hand section and foot section.
