I’m selling my standard M&E that had rings and cork added by Jon C. a number of months ago. He also turned the cap so it looks like more than a piece of pipe. Its a beautiful player, nice sweet tone. Would make a nice first flute for anyone. I’m selling it because I have a 6 keyed M&E R&R and this one doesn’t get played enough. Price $325 + shipping. Here are some old pictures Jon took:
Hey there is a picture of my dusty dulcimer! It is still sitting in the same spo where the picture was taken…

Hey folks, this is a nice flute for the money! The closest thing you can get new in an M&E with rings is $450 now, so you save a good bit with Michaels.
The Standard M&E is a very nice toned flute, and not available anymore either-it has smaller holes than his Rudall, and an easy reach too. I would have kept mine if I could have afforded to; they are excellent flutes, and nice players.
Michael or Jon, are these plain rings or fancy?
I would jump at it myself if I had the money, this is truly a one of a kind M&E.
They are plain rings. This is a really great flute to start out on like I said and I still enjoy playing it which speaks to what a good flute it has been.
