You are looking at a Sweet High B minor Liptus, Native American style flute made by Mockingbird Flutes, of Texas! This flute has a Running Horse head carved from Lyptus. Of course if you see any flute design/carving that you would want in any key then I will be glad to customize it to your hands as long as the flute physics allow it. If you have very small hands it is much more difficult to impossible to make a real low flute to match the max comfort reach on the bottom three holes. So on custom flutes I always ask for the fingers measured from the center of the finger nails while holding a flute or flute shapped object to get the best spacing, if it is for a flute that is mid rang then a comfortable stretch should be measured; but if it is for a low flute you will want to give me also your Max streatch. This way I will be able to adjust the design to make to most comfortable reach possible. Let me know also if you find that on the lower flutes that you have tried if it is a stretch to reach arm wise also; if it is I can make the flute as a side blown flute as long as I know which hand down you use so I can put the blow hole on the correct side of the flute. This doesn't change how it is played just the location of the blow hole, although most people that have played my walking stick flutes all love the extra sound they hear from a side blown flute because the sound hole is closer to their ear plus it makes it even more comfortable to play.

The finger holes are placed on center in the traditional style. See the flute lay out for the finger hole sizes and spacing. This flute, like all Native American style flutes are affected by temperature as far as the tuning is concerned but it was tuned at 72 degrees to a Mid "D#" fundamental. This flute can be played by a professional at a recording studio or by the new flute player just playing by themselves.

Enjoy the Journey!

This flute has an Oval 5/8 by 11/16 bore Diameter
