Our Condor Bass 'E' is handcrafted from a single piece of Walnut, which is a hardwood that gives the flute clarity and resonance in its musical voice. We source our Walnut domestically. It is a great flute for durability since it's more resilient against dents and scratches  than our Aromatic Cedar or Spanish Cedar flutes.  Because its density, Walnut is also heavier than our Aromatic Cedar or Spanish Cedar bass flutes.

This flute is tuned in the key of "E" minor and is a great accompanying flute for guitars and our higher octave key of 'E' flute, the Kestrel key of "E".

This is a six hole flute. We automatically include a leather hole cover with this flute, which can be used on the third hole from the top of the flute, as seen in the product's images. Covering the third hole from the top makes the flute easier to learn to play. The leather hole cover can easily be untied and removed, giving the flute player the option of playing the instrument as either a five hole flute or a six hole flute.

This flute is approximately 23 inches (58 cm) long.
