The POWELL Signature Flute embodies the epitome of exceptional craftsmanship. Its origin traces back to a special story, gifted as a unique present to a Boston doctor who saved the eyesight of Powell's founder. Handcrafted in solid silver in 1952, this flute was the doctor's first encounter with a Powell flute. Today, the Signature model is the first fully handcrafted Powell flute made in the USA.

The Signature flute offers remarkable accessibility for a handcrafted instrument. Its body, headjoint, and mechanism are in solid silver. It features a traditional pin mechanism, giving it a lighter weight. The tone holes are crafted using a patented extrusion method, and each flute bears Verne Q. Powell's signature, guaranteeing superior quality.

One of the instrument's distinctive features is the hand-cut Signature II style embouchure. It is crafted and tested by the same artisans who make custom embouchures. The flute also boasts the "POWELL Signature Verne" engraving and comes in a precious wooden case, adding a touch of elegance.

The solid silver used for the flute's construction has a density of 10.5, offering perfect resistance and exceptional durability. This flute is designed to be your faithful musical companion throughout your life.

The advantages of the POWELL Signature flute lie in its top-tier craftsmanship, often regarded as a must-have among flutists. It provides a broad, expansive, and powerful sound due to its remarkable headjoint.

However, it's worth noting that the instrument's price is relatively high. Additionally, the sound philosophy of the POWELL Signature flute significantly differs from Japanese flutes, which might not suit some musicians who prefer a softer, warmer tone.

The POWELL Signature flute embodies craftsmanship excellence and offers an exceptional sound, making it a favored choice for passionate flutists seeking a prestigious instrument.
