Flutemakers Guild First-Made Flute-C9044
About
Presenting an exceptional and historically significant flute: the very first instrument produced by the Flutemakers Guild (FMG) in 1961. This unique flute was crafted by Ewen McDougall, the foreman who, along with six other makers including Harry Seeley and Angus Harris, left Rudall Carte to establish FMG.
The tone is rich and dark, yet it presents a hint of beautiful bright overtones that add a more mellow and rounded quality. This combination allows for a versatile sound, suitable for various musical styles and settings. This flute is not just an instrument but a piece of history, marking the establishment of the Flutemakers Guild and showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of Ewen McDougall. It is an ideal choice for musicians seeking a distinctive, expressive, and historically rich silver instrument.
Condition
This flute is in great playing order, though it is recommended to have the padding checked to ensure long-term.
