    Description

    This Powell is MINT! Recently overhauled January of 2020 with Straubinger pads by certified Powell technician Sue Shockey. It plays great. Lots of power and projection, lightning fast action, speaks easily and clearly and leans towards the bright side, but not overly bright.

Comes with all records (original bill of sale, overhaul, maintenance sheets) a great case with rubber shock-absorbing mounts and a Jean Cavallaro case cover.

    Thank you.

    A Recent Reference:
    "Recently I purchased a great instrument from a seller who also deserves that description and it is a pleasure to recommend him to others who are looking to upgrade their equipment, instrument or to capture all that is possible in recording. Dave is a true professional who has spent his life in music attaining the highest achievement and knowledge technically and in artistry as a performer and is he extremely open and genuinely enthusiastic in sharing ideas.
    He sent me recordings he had made of my flute before I bought it from him, he made sure it was superbly set up, and we engaged in a number of long, worthwhile conversations before the transaction was finalized. In these times, it is especially unexpected and valuable to encounter an individual who conducts business on such a high plane of integrity and depth and it is my belief that anyone who contacts him for a product or service that he offers will greatly benefit."
