Pre-Owned Muramatsu .900 Coin Silver Flute B Footjoint

Our Description

Most flute players at one time or another come across one or more pieces of music which requires a low B. Even many players on solid silver flutes use a silver-plated B footjoint, when required, as an economical solution to this problem, since the effect on tone is only slight.

Please note that this footjoint is supplied unfitted. There may be a small additional charge for fitting - please contact our workshop for further details. This footjoint is compatible with most popular makes of flute.

General Condition

This footjoint is being sold as seen and is in working condition throughout. There are some areas of tarnish but this will not impact the playability at all.

About Muramatsu

When, in 1923 Koichi Muramatsu began manufacturing Western concert flutes in Japan, the instrument was virtually unknown there: the population of flute players in Japan consisted of around 20 amateur and professional flautists, and the sound of the flute was almost entirely new to Japan.

As Muramatsu introduced the flute to Japan, the popularity of the instrument rose and the company grew. By the 1970s Muramatsu had established itself as the flute of choice for professionals and amateurs across the world. Many of these flutes are still going strong and sound as beautiful as they did back then, while Muramatsu - still family-owned - have continued developing their flutes to maintain their market-leading position.
