Product Description

Stellar Basic Native American Style A Flute With Black Polar Fleece Flute Bag And Instruction Book (Natural Heartwood Cedar)

Native American Style A Flute With Black Polar Fleece Flute Bag (Natural Heartwood Cedar)

Native American Style A Flute With Black Polar Fleece Flute Bag

The Basic A flute is a wonderful key for any level of flute player. It is the best choice of the three keys we offer for someone with small or inflexible hands. It is small enough that most people can comfortably play it. It has a bright and cheerful voice. If you are not sure about fit, send me a message and I will help you choose the correct size.

This flute has a higher pitched, cheerful and sweet voice (once you get past the squeaking faze of learning!). In the picture of three flutes together, it is the size of the one in on the left.

Our Basic A flutes are made from unstained western red cedar and come in a wide range of warm gold and brown colors. The color of the wood may vary from the photos. All of our Basic flutes are made from the highest quality western red cedar. This is a softwood, which means that it is light in weight giving the instrument a resonance (subtle vibration) that you can feel in your hands as you play. It is a highly sought after wood for flutes for this reason.

Please keep in mind that it may take some time and practice to play the flute as smoothly as I do in the video, but with the resources included in the flute package, and patience from the player (and their house mates and pets) you will learn to play just as beautifully.

The scale this flute features is easy to learn and lends itself to improvising (making up free style music). You don’t need to read sheet music to learn this instrument and you don’t need any prior experience with music to learn to play the flute.

This is a six hole Native American style flute tuned to 440hz, universal concert tuning. It features a removable block to allow for easy condensation removal and proper drying after playing. It comes with a handmade, black polar fleece flute bag with a durable nylon shoulder strap and a leather drawstring closure.

Choosing the right flute

Pictured you will see our three keys of Basic flute. As flutes move down in pitch they get bigger and the fingering holes get further apart and further down on the flute body. This means the lower flutes are harder to play.

The key of A is our smallest and highest pitched of all three basic flutes, it is also the best choice for someone with smaller hands or someone who has limited flexibility. Many Flute classes will request you start with this key.

The Key of G is the middle sized Basic flute. It is our most popular key because of its soothing voice. Most people can easily play this key with some practice.

The key of F# (F sharp) is our lowest key of Basic flute. This means that it is also the hardest to play. The fingering hole stretch on the F# can be uncomfortable for people with smaller hands or people who have never played an instrument before.

Below you will find detailed measurements

Measurements for the key of A

Total Length 21 1/2 inches
Bore Diameter 7/8 inch
Hole Spacing Holes are approximately 1" apart center to center
Mouth End to First Hole 9 1/2 inches

The sound is very good and very well made. I am a beginner but can see and tell the difference. I am happy with my purchase. Only one suggestion: I would have loved to see a carry pouch, more representative of the native American Indians.

I don't much about the type of instrument, however the material felt cheap and light for the price.

I am still learning but all instruments take time and practice. Love the sound and the handling of it, I have small hands and still can cover the holes. I am happy with this purchase!

I haven’t played a flute since middle school (40 years ago!) and I was able to play this on Day 1. I’m so excited to learn. The sound is soothing and the breath work required is so therapeutic. I searched around a lot before I bought this one and I love the family vibe, customer service, and craftsmanship. The price point is also very fair.

These are beautiful instruments. Well crafted and of great value. My 13yo is now inspired to play music and so am I. We bought two. Customer service is outstanding as well.

I found it easy to play as a beginner and it is pleasing to my ear. It doesn’t have the richness of tone of expensive flutes but is great for the money spent for it. I’m also happy with the key it’s in.
