Top model flute by Armstrong. Serial number H10##. Overall condition is very good.

It's a superb instrument made in the Armstrong (Elkhart) workshop in the late 1960's. French (open) keywork to low B. Sounding length is 436 mm (A=440), the embouchure measures 10.3 X 12.1 mm. Extruded tone holes, Y-arm pad cup construction. Gold springs. New Protec Micro Zip case. 440 grams weight. We measure tube thickness as .015 inches.

The Heritage department at Armstrong was a separate division within the factory, dedicated to producing a high-quality instrument to compete with the best Boston makers. In the late sixties Haynes and Powell were both quoting three to five year delivery times. The Heritage flute was marketed as an instrument of equal quality but more readily available to the buyer.
