This is probably some kind of 19th century flute, Key of D, but I suspect perhaps it was originally Key of C, and someone cut off the low C hole and key (the person I bought it from had no idea of it's history). Keys for E flat, F nat, G sharp, B flat, long C nat. Brass tuning slide, a little loose. Sound is OK, intonation is bad. Notes are pretty inconsistently out of tune with each other. So I figure this might be a flute for someone who likes to work on flutes, or makes flutes.Keys and pads are all OK. Cork is OK and can be moved. I rigged up a clarinet case to fit it. $75.00 Paypal Continental US, plus postage, which is probably about $15-$20.Below is a link to photos.

- Tell us something.: I am an Irish flute player, and I enjoy reading all the flute stuff. Whether or not I'm looking for an instrument, I really enjoy looking at the for sale things! It's sort of armchair travelling.
