About this Flute:
From the Powell Website:
“The most affordable handmade flute that we offer… Signature Flutes have a traditional pinned mechanism, resulting in a lighter weight. The tone holes are drawn using our patented method of extrusion, and each flute bears the signature of Verne Q. Powell. The final mark of quality on this instrument is the handcut Signature II style headjoint, made and tested by the same headjoint makers who make our Custom headjoints.”
About Aurumite:
From Powell’s Website:
“Through a patented fusion process, Powell produces flute tubing made of interlocking layers of gold and silver. Known as Aurumite, this material combines the projection of silver with the warmth of gold.”
Many people find that the Aurumite is helpful when playing with intensity, as it helps to prevent the notes from cracking as easily. If you’re looking to be able to play with a lot of volume and a rich sound, this flute is great.
Playability and Condition:
This flute has just been through the hands of my trusted technician, and it is in excellent used condition, including the pads. I had so much fun testing this flute! The balance of lows to highs, the rich tone colors and beautiful palette, and the smooth mechanism make it a joy to play! There are no major dings, dents or scratches, but only the usual very light surface wear seen on any used flute. Beautiful!
