Meet the Natural Heartwood Cedar Native American Style G Flute This is a Native American style G flute made of western red cedar. This wood can vary in color from lovely golds into deep rich red browns. Our natural heartwood cedar flutes are made from the same wood as our iron stained 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 our most popular flute! Made from locally sourced western red cedar, the Basic G flute is a wonderful introductory flute! You can ask any flute enthusiast what flutes they have in their collection and you will likely hear “key of G” on the list. The reason for this is its mid range voice that has both soothing deeper tones and higher more cheerful tones. Luckily for beginner flute players out there, it is also fairly easy to play! It the middle sized flute of the three Basic flutes we offer. It is well suited for people with medium sized hands. We find that most people can easily reach the finger holes on this key, but if you are buying for a child, or someone with smaller hands, consider starting with our key of A flute which has an easier finger hole stretch. The Stellar Basic G flute is a Native American style flute tuned to feature a pentatonic minor scale. Native flutes are characterized by a two chamber design with a piece (we call the block) that sits on top and channels the air you blow into one chamber across an opening to the second chamber (imagine blowing across a bottle). Our flutes are tuned to the universal standard 440HZ tuning which in simpler terms means that they are compatible with the majority of other instruments. That all sounds confusing if you are new to music, but all you truly need to know for now is that the scale they feature is easy to play and sounds good just about any way you play it so it is wonderful for people who don’t read music or people who are looking for an instrument to play in an unstructured way. Each flute comes with a booklet that has drawings of which holes to cover. We want you to be successful in your flute playing journey! Show more
