SANKYO FLUTE AG950 + 10K Hand-made DT RC

The tampo was replaced in 2019. After that, only periodic inspections. It is used, so it is very beautiful with some polishing scratches. This is one of the best gold and silver (AG950) pieces you can find.

A lot of 10K is used for the riser, lip plate, ring, etc., and the silver is Ag950 with high purity, and the tube thickness is 0.40mm, so the blowing feel will feel closer to Gold compared to Ag925 total silver. This instrument is suitable for those who have some experience with flute. It is difficult to try it, but if possible, it might be a good idea to try playing around the all silver handmade ST at a music store. If possible, it would be better for you to play the Ag950 model. This is recommended for those who are currently using an all silver flute and want to step up to a higher level or enjoy a different tone.

The current Ag950 (handmade ST model) is priced at 1,045,000 yen (tax included).

10K is used for the lip plate, riser, reflector, and ring, and it is engraved, making it a luxurious specification unique to the commemorative model. The price of gold has exploded, so it is absolutely impossible to make these flutes now, and all manufacturers around the world have raised their prices drastically in recent years due to price revisions, so this is a valuable and luxurious flute with specifications that are not available now.
