Before I write a very strongly worded email to the flute tech I used…
could somebody please tell me if it’s normal to get a flute back from the service with the thumb key screw looking like this, new scratches, and what looks to be some weird pointy soldering?
**UPDATE**
The flute tech was mortified this had happened. The apprentice had assumed the work was complete and taken it off the line, so the work was incomplete. The tech has offered to drive an hour each way to pick up and drop off my flute, and will be lending me one of his from the shop while the work is being completed.
I'm happy with that, I can't fault them for an honest mistake which is being rectified.
