A flute teacher is asking me to help him sell his Muramatsu flute. I have no idea what would be a fair price for it. He bought it himself new in the 70's It has a three digit serial number. It is open hole, inline G, C foot, drawn tone holes.

No model number, no indication that it is silver. Owner says it is totally silver, including mecanism. It has recently been repadded by a professionnal, and it is in pristine condition. I will post photos later. If anybody knows something about those older flutes, or can refer me to a link, it would be greatly appreciated. Muramatsu Japan is not very helpful either; they wrote that this flute is too old to have it in there records. Can't tell me anything about it!!!

I don't work for any flute company but with most student flutes I can tell easily by its serial number, model number, condition, when they were approximatly produced and what they are worth on the used market (the price I pay & the price they can be sold once overhauled). But nobody working for Muramatsu can help me!

A 3 digit serial number means it is probably among the first to be made. This flute doesn't need any overhauling; it is unusually pristine for its age. You can view some photos here: How much would you guys, as flute resellers, would pay for this? I am asking because this is what is being asked to me. He needs the money to buy an other flute, an upgrade from that one. I cold also sell it on consignment, but that could take too long. And still, I don't have a clue how much we could ask for it.

I could also sell it on eBay, but then what would be a reasonnable reserve amount or starting bid?

Best Answer: Your best bet is to call Jeff Weissman in New York - he is the Muramatsu dealer distributor. You can also call Muramatsu America in Royal Oak, MI.

Take photos that are REALLY clear - email them. Whenever we see instruments without model numbers (is there at least a serial?) we get a little suspicious - although it is not always serious. Check to see that ALL the tube parts are stamped for silver content - SS, 900, 925 or 'Solid Silver' - every PART. Keys might be plated. This company is so anal, I doubt that anything like a prototype ever escaped the factory - there must be some reason that your flute has no model number - but they used to HIDE them really well, too - did you look on the RIBS? Make no assumptions whatsoever until this instrument is seen by a fine dealer - not the local band guy.

Added - just a random thought - some years of the AD models had no adjustment screws. I do not mean *visible* screws - like those hidden underneath, etc, - but NONE - all adjustments were done with carbonized shims.

I owned a Sakurai like that for many years - no screws, nothing to vibrate out of adjustment. So if it is all silver, and has NO adjustment screws, just assembly screws - could be the equivalent of an AD. Jeff W would know.. Japanese companies are notoriously 'cards to the vest' about this stuff. • Tell us some more • Upload in Progress • Upload failed.

For many years now there has been an issue in the British flute world that has been allowed to continue unchecked and I feel that is time that someone with a contrasting view voices an opinion. In my 35 years or thereabouts at the top end of the orchestral world in the UK I have tried to avoid confrontation, and it is only after a long period of thought that I have finally decided to share my opinions. I certainly have no intention to offend anyone, but equally, the endless highly disturbing stories that I hear back from both professionals and students make me realise that silence is no longer an option. I refer to the tuning of flutes and the ‘war’ that appears to be waged by certain distinguished players and teachers in the UK against manufacturers they have either an axe to grind with or quite simply, no time for.
