Tom Lacy began working for Armstrong flutes right out of high school in 1971 in the very plant he is working some 40 years later for the Conn-Selmer Company in Elkhart, Indiana. Along the way, Tom built his own flutes for several years before joining UMI and later Conn-Selmer. This pre-owned Armstrong piccolo has a wooden body with a solid silver head joint. It has a beautiful sound and is in great mechanical condition. The pads are in good condition, and the keywork responds well.
