Muramatsu Flute - GX III BE Heavy Wall
The Muramatsu GX III-BE-H flute with solid silver head-joint and body, B-foot, Heavy Wall and open keys.
Muramatsu GX series flutes have a warm and mellow sound that is typical for handmade flutes with silver head-joint and body. This is an all sterling silver flute except for the silver plated nickel-silver silver key mechanism. This instrument will thrill those who have the opportunity to experience it. Yet, the price of this model is less than other professional flutes that do not offer the high quality and impeccable construction standards exemplified in all Muramatsu flutes.
About Muramatsu
Muramatsu was founded in 1923 in Japan by Koichi Muramatsu. It is still a family-owned business and is now managed by the third generation Muramatsu. Each Muramatsu flute is made with the care and precision that gave Muramatsu its reputation as one of the world's best professional flute makers. Today Muramatsu sells more professional flutes than any other brand, and the Muramatsu flute is the preferred instrument for many flute soloists and flutists of world-renowned orchestras.
