Meet our Iron Stained Cedar Basic F# Flute

This is a Native American style F sharp flute made of western red cedar with a natural, iron stain applied to darken the wood into a rich black color. This transparent stain allows the beautiful wood grain to show through adding character to the flute. Our iron stained flutes are made from the same wood as our heartwood cedar flutes, they are only different in appearance. Both colors of Basic flute have the same careful tuning and voicing as our more expensive flutes.

This is the lowest sounding and largest of the three keys of Basic flute we offer. Though they might take a little more practice for beginners, the low and soothing voice of these flutes keeps people hooked. This flute is a wonderful next step for those who have worked with the key of G flute already. Many people with larger hands and no had dexdarity issues can play these flutes with some practice. They are also a great choice for people who play other instruments that require finger stretching like the piano, guitar, or clarinet.

The Stellar Basic F# flute (that hashtag is actually a Sharp symbol in musical notation)  is tuned to feature the pentatonic minor scale. This is the most common tuning for modern  Native American flutes to be tuned to. This scale is wonderful for those who claim to be “non musical” (That isn’t; a real thing! You just haven’t found the right instrument!) because it sounds good almost any way you play it! This allows the flute player to zone out and play in an unstructured way. Native American flutes are categorized by a unique two chamber design with a piece that is tied on top of the flute to channel the air. This design makes them much easier to play than other kinds of flute. Our flutes are tuned to the universal standard 440hz concert tuning which means that they are compatible with most other instruments.
