Listen to the sound clip!
You are looking at a sweet "F# minor" mid range Appalachian Cherry with a horses head totem carved from Appalachian Cherry Native American style flute. This makes a beautiful sounding bright flute that is as clear as a bell. This is also one of the most popular keys for Native American flute Songs!
I don't do this part time; I spend my time focused on making the best sounding flutes as well as creative designs. This also gives me enough time to make all my flutes while in a positive frame of mind. I start my day with meditation and prayer to the Creator to guide me through the day and to bless my flutes so they may heal the mind and spirit of those playing and hearing them. I also burn incense and cedar for each flute prior to tuning. I do this because I have been on a spiritual journey for most of my life and when I found the Native American Flute it just fit in with my Journey. This is why making flutes has become my passion!
The finger holes are placed on center in the traditional style, please look at the flute lay out for finger hole 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 "F#" 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!
