BEAUTIFUL MATEKI MO-02 HANDMADE SOLID SILVER HEAD FLUTE WITH CLOSED-HOLES, OFFSET G AND C-FOOT

 

This is indeed a rare opportunity to purchase a used Mateki MO-02 closed hole flute, handmade by one of the world’s top makers. MATEKI, which translates to Magic Flute in Japan, represents a small but highly esteemed company known for its exceptional craftsmanship. Founded by Mr. S. Watanabe, a former craftsman for Suichi Tanaka, the company has built a strong reputation for high-quality flutes.

These flutes stand out for their beautifully rich and mellow tonal colors, excelling particularly in crossover work and jazz. For instance, this MO-02 model features a hand-cut headjoint, a silver-plated body with closed holes, pointed key arms, an offset G, and a C foot. As a result, it delivers a superb, responsive, and warm sound. Moreover, finding these models on the used market proves extremely challenging due to their rarity.

Given their scarceness and exceptional quality, I highly recommend this instrument to any player. This particular flute has been cherished and remains in beautiful condition with no marks. Additionally, I have thoroughly cleaned and adjusted it, so it is ready to play immediately.
