This is a well maintained Yamaha 481 flute with a B foot with a gizmo key.  This was the flute my daughter moved up to when she became much more proficient.  It offers many of the charastics of more expensive flutes.  I had the flute completely reconditioned by a professional shop with over 150 years experience in maintaining and repairing musical instruments.  This flute in your local music shop would cost  between $1,200 and $1,400.  New it costs between $1,740 and $1,850.  My reserve is significantly less.  Give your bid a try. 

Examine the pictures closely. The mouthpiece has one small dent in it.  My daughter tells me it does not affect the sound.  She did it when she wore braces

The serial number on the flute is 052367 A.  It comes with a soft leather case and a hard case.  It also has cleaniing rods of various types.  Again see pictures.  It was well loved and gave forth beautiful music in our home.  Perhaps it will do the same in your home.

I will ship for free only to the Continental United States and APO/FPO.  AK/HI will have a slight surcharge for the difference.  I will not ship to any foreign address.

I will allow a seven (7) day examination.  Full refund minus original shipping costs if returned without damage.
