Learn About Flute Types

              Single                                                  Double                                                 Triple                                             Triple Harmony          

Choosing the key is next. For beginners I recommend the keys of A, G or F#. These are great keys to learn on as the spacing of the holes on these flutes is close enough together not to strain your fingers and small enough to make covering the holes with the pads of your fingers easy. 

Along with the Key you will need to decide which frequency you would like your flute tuned to - 440 or 432 Htz. ​440 is ideal for those who would like to easily play with other people, as most instruments made today are tuned to 440 Htz. 432 Htz is a healing frequency in relationship to the schumann resonance or earths natural vibration.

Choosing a Wood

The flute can be made in one single kind of wood or a combination of two or more woods. I source the Hawaiian woods from a friend on Maui - he is a furniture maker and reserves the offcuts (extras) of his projects for my use.
I also use local woods around NC and Florida, where I currently live.

Hawaiian Woods available include:
Koa and Mango

Local Woods include:
Maple, Walnut, Camphor and Aromatic Cedar
