About this Product
This flute is tuned to low B flat (3rd octave) minor pentatonic scale, the same scale as Native American Style flutes. It was created from Easter Red Cedar. The color is dark due to the color added by the tannin/electrolyte solution used in the Fractal Burning process. It is set up for a right handed player.

How it’s Made
This flute was made by making a mouthpiece and hollowing 2 pieces of Eastern Red Cedar to get the fundamental note of B flat 3. The inside was sealed with shellac. The fractal burning design was added and the flute was treated with the electrolyte tanin. The finger holes were then added, one at a time and tuned to get the rest of the notes on the minor pentatonic scale. Tuning is checked and rechecked because each hole affects the tuning of the others. The flute sealed with satin lacquer. Comes with it's own hand made fleece carrying bag.
