Native style, six hole flute in the key of G minor. Hand crafted from richly grained claro walnut wood, with fully tenoned mouth cap of walnut and beautifully-contrasting yellow pine with inlaid bloodwood beauty rings.
This lovely looking flute is bored from a solid blank of claro walnut aged for 12 years. Topped with multiple, hand rubbed coats of 100% natural oil and wax finish for a gentle, warm glow. The flute also features my signature hand burned "morning star" with inlaid abalone center below the sound hole. The classic-style bird block is crafted from walnut with a yellow pine core, and sits atop an inlaid ebony nest.. The block is secured with laces of black and brown deer hide leather.
This is a rich and classic looking flute with a large and traditional sounding voice, a real players flute. It plays with a very full, resonant, vibrant tone, and projects well with great stage presence and excellent backpressure. The overall length is 22" with a 7/8" bore and weighs 8 oz. It has an easy and comfortable reach for all players. The flute comes provided with a hand sewn fleece draw string bag for storage and protection. All flutes are shipped Priority Mail with signature required and insurance.
