Spanish Cedar in the key of D - #4746

$305.00

This flute is made from a light orange piece of Spanish cedar. This lightweight softwood lends a lovely resonance to the voice of the flute. It has an inner glow, almost metallic looking and a grain pattern of small dark flecks similar to mahogany (it is in the same family). One of my favorite characteristics of this wood is its lovely spicy smell.

This flute is made from FSC certified wood.  FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits.

Measurements

The low D is about 26 inches long with a 1 1/8 inch bore diameter. It’s about 11 ¼ inches from the mouth end to the middle of the first fingering hole, and the fingering holes are 1 ¼ inches apart from center to center but are clustered in groups of three to make them easier to play. There is a nearly a 2 inch gap between the top three holes and the bottom three holes.
