Here's an awesome-sounding flute with gorgeous woods, and a unique and beautiful tone! This is a split drone, or harmony drone that is essentially 2 flutes with half a scale on each barrel, that harmonize a fifth apart from each other. This makes it so the melodies played have to be simpler (no high octave notes etc) but it plays chord-like notes, as all notes harmonize with each other. It's quite easy to play, and creates really resonant sounds. The flute body is made of curly walnut, the mouth piece and abstract claw sound blocks are of Macassar, and the accent stripe is purple heart. The bottom three holes are slightly offset for ease of play.The sound is low, clear and majestic! Refer to video for sound.
SPECS: Concert tuned to an E flat NAF minor, Length is 25 1/2", with a 1" Bore--- Maximum finger spacing = 1 1/2"( Holes 2 and 3, center to center of holes(offset)--- Distance From Mouth Piece to First Hole = 19"
