Why we partnered with Jonny
My philosophy as the owner of Stellar Flutes is to provide not only musician quality flutes, but also all the resources a person needs to be a successful flute player. I believe that as a teacher it is important to be clear, concise, and simple! It has always been important to Stellar, and to me personally, that we are in no way encroaching on Native culture, and we don’t impose a religious or spiritual meaning onto our customers, but rather allow each person to experience the flute in their own way. Stellar chose to partner with Jonny, not only because he is a long time friend of our family, but because we believe his teaching style aligned with our core values. He is honest, clear, and kind, and his lessons are beautifully made and easy to follow.

Always a Great Buy
I was in the market for a couple of new flutes to work on and when I saw the Pre-tuned flutes on sale, I couldn't pass them up so I ordered one of each; A,F# & G. I haven't had the time to get working on finishing them yet but I have several other flutes from you all, some kits and some complete flutes to use. I always enjoy my Stellar flutes and they are always great to play. Hope you all have a wonderful and Blessed Christmas season.

Had What I Couldn’t Find
Kudos to Stellar Flutes for having something I couldn’t find anywhere else, after searching for over a month. They were the only one’s I could find that sold a new block/fetish for my flute.

Not ready to give an opinion
All of my flutes have been unibody construction, most come from High Spirits flutes.
As this is my first two-part construction flute I would like to reserve my opinion forsome time to see how well it stands up to use.
The order process at Stella Flutes was easy and efficient and shipment was quick
My initial observation is that the flute appears to be well constructed. The voice is good, on the mellow side, with some sharpness to it.
The flute feels good in the hand and is easy to finger.
I will post again after some time to assess the construction quality

D Minor 440 Hz in Cherry
The Flute is really well made and the support I got from Lilly is awesome. The holes are little bit farther apart for me but , still reachable and that challenge also makes me ready for bigger bass flutes. I'm happy so far. Also, wish they had different fetish that would make it a bit exotic. The bird works fine..
