Our Basic F# flutes are the lowest and largest of the three keys of Basic flutes we sell. They are a little more of a stretch on the fingers than our G or A Basic flutes. This key of flute has a low, soothing voice.
We offer our Basic key of F# flutes in three shades of western red cedar, Light and Heartwood are natural color variants of this wood and Dark Stained cedar has had a iron stain applied to darken the wood. The color is cosmetic and doesn't change the voice of the flute at all.
Western red cedar is a light weight softwood that lends a smooth and meditative quality to the voice of the flute.
