Flute
Crafton Musik AB is one of Scandinavia’s leading distributors of musical instruments with activities in Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
The company was founded in 1942 with a focus on own production of stringed instruments, which were popular among musicians of the time.
The Crafton Crown flute is a project I have undertaken. It is the first modern flute I have refurbished, and I must say it has worked out quite well.
It is a relatively cheap school model. It was in very bad condition from the start, but I managed to supply it with new pads. A broken post has been soldered on (see photo). The flute has been equipped with cork and felt bumpers. Everything has been adjusted so that the mechanics work perfectly.
There are a number of scratches, dents that have not been straightened out and a partially loose ring near the foot joint (see photo). The flute is not quite straight either, but you don’t notice that when you play it. It is not bad enough to be seen in the pictures.
Please note that although it looks pretty in the photos, it is not a new flute. both body and keys show signs of wear.
