Altus Flute 1807AL/ALII

The Altus 1807AL/ALII is the lasting result of 30 years of research and fascination with the famed Louis Lot flutes, as well as other vintage French flutes. At last the secret of these fine flutes has been defined with the production of Altus Silver™. This supreme material has the ability to produce expressive effects as excellent as these highly valued older flutes. Consisting of 94.6% silver and 18 other precious metals, and designed with Altus special seaming, this flute once again exemplifies Altus' commitment to create flutes that offer beauty of sound far beyond what is possible with conventional materials. The Altus 1807AL/ALII features a .946 Altus Silver™ seamed headjoint and body, Sterling silver mechanism, .997 Pure Silver hinge tubes, SP-1 springs, D# roller, and soldered tone holes. Options include a split E mechanism, C# trill key, 18k Gold or Platinum Atsui plating, and choice of Altus Classic, Z-cut, or V-cut headjoint.
