Details
Our Merlin Signature Flute in the key of 'C' minor (440 Hz) has a responsive, musical voice that is smooth and balanced; warm on the low notes and clear on the high notes. The flute is handcrafted from domestically grown Aromatic Cedar, which is a premier tonal wood that gives the instrument a broad, resonant sound.
Every Signature Flute is designed to be both a musical instrument as well as a piece of beautiful artwork. Our precision tuning insures that each Signature Flute is easily able to meet the requirements of any musician. Our Signature Series flutes utilize a unique airflow design that provides exceptional responsiveness and player control, superior amplification, and makes them ideal for a wide range of musical styles.
Our Signature Merlin is 15.5 inches (39 cm) in length, with a 3/4 inch bore (1.9 cm). The Merlin is the highest octave we make in the Pentatonic key of 'C' minor, and it can also be played in the Relative Major Diatonic scale in the key of 'E'.
This flute is easy to play because of its small size, which makes it a good fit for someone starting their musical journey. It is also an ideal instrument for drum circles because of its high-tone voice, which stands out from the deeper toned drums.
