Sankyo CF 201 Professional Handmade Flute Tested





















The Sankyo Flutes are incredible! These professional handmade flutes produce a rich, full and strong sound with stunning dynamic range. This CF 201 model is a fully handmade pro flute featuring a Handmade Sterling Silver headjoint and silver clad body. Comes with the RT-1 headjoint, featuring a specially shaped lip plate for maximum airflow into the flute. This is a incredible deal on a professional flute! We received this into our shop as a trade-in and we’ve priced to sell quickly! Condition: Perfect for someone who wants a great priced flute and doesn’t mind some cosmetic blemishes. This flute has been well cared for with minimal scratches and dings, but does show some roughness (pitting) of the silver plating on the body and keys as shown in the pictures. The previous owner had slightly acidic skin to cause this, but it’s merely cosmetic and doesn’t affect how it sounds or plays! Pads are in tact, they do appear slightly dirty from use. Refer to the pictures for more info. As with all used flutes, we highly recommend getting a COA (cleaning, oil, adjustment) maintenance service to get it playing at its best. All the notes play, but they keys need more pressure than usual to get the lower notes out. I also recommend replacing a couple of the more dirty pads for best performance. Comes with NEW custom fitted case and new case cover! Silver Handmade RT-1 Sankyo Headjoint. Silver plated body and mechanism. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
