Armstrong 103OS Open Hole Student Flute, Professionally Serviced Plays Perfectly

Description

Condition: Excellent, Professionally Serviced
My personal experience is that this flute is an easy player (easier than my more expensive Yamaha). This flute has been serviced, bent keys have been aligned, 1 pad was replaced, it was adjusted and regulated, mechanisms were oiled and it was play tested before being returned to me.
One additional note, the maintenance work performed by my instrument repair expert, has made a huge difference between being frustrated with notes that I previously struggled to play evenly with stability and being able to play the notes smoothly and with ease. The purchaser of this instrument will be the beneficiary of this work.
In the student market, Armstrong is considered one of the better makers, having built a reputation of quality and craftsmanship throughout its complete line of flutes. The
103 OS is no exception,
offering both durability and dependability. Because of it's durability (and dependability), it is an especially great band and jazz instrument.
