Our Spirit Flute Bass flute in the key of 'E' minor (440 Hz) is handcrafted from a single piece of Spanish Cedar, a softwood that gives the flute a rich bass voice, with warm high notes, and the versatility to be played as a contemplative bass flute or a lead instrument.
The short mouthpiece of a Spirits Flute is convenient for travel, it also provides ample back-pressure to accentuate clarity on the higher register notes and minimizes moisture buildup.
This flute is approximately 19-inches (48 cm) long, making it one our our shortest bass flutes, which offers those with smaller hands the opportunity to play a deeper-toned bass flute. The flute is tuned in the key of 'E' minor but can also be played in the relative major key of 'G'.
This is a six hole flute, which comes with a leather hole cover that can be used to close the third hole from the top (as seen in the picture) to make learning to play very easy. The hole cover can easily be removed.
Our PRESERVATION COLLECTION was developed from our commitment to sustainability in the woodworking process, and our deep respect for the Earth's natural resources.
Preservation flutes are different from our regular flute collection because of small imperfections like minor shaping inconsistencies, stone inlay variations, design prototypes, unique wood qualities, or other cosmetic differences, which don't meet the aesthetic perfection of our regular flute line but never compromise their excellent sound quality.
Every flute in our Preservation Collection still meets our company's high-quality, American handcrafted, woodwind instrument guarantee, just at a deeply discounted value.
