Antique 8-key Simple System Flute, 440 Hz

Description

I am selling this unbranded vintage
'nach Meyer'
-style blackwood 8-key flute with metal lined headjoint, German silver keys and C foot.
The flute is most likely of German or maybe Italian manufacture.
Sounding length:
589 mm
. Pitch:
440 Hz
.
Most of the pads are leaking air, so they need to be replaced. There is also crack in the wood on the headjoint, which is causing air leakage. The barrel is fine. I have covered the keyed tone holes with transparent tape, just to give you an idea of what the flute sounds like.
