*THE BIG QUESTION*
The question we hear the most is, "Does the choice of wood affect the flute's voice?" The answer is yes...in a subtle and hard to describe way. The soft woods like Western Red Cedar have a mellow, hazy sound and the hard woods like Cherry and Walnut have a clean sound. Also, it's usually possible to get more volume from a hardwood flute. But these distinctions are subjective. One thing we can say with certainty is that the differences are very minor. Maybe the most important reason to buy a flute of a certain wood is because you like the way it looks!



We've been selling our flutes at arts and crafts fairs for a number of years and have helped many first time flute players decide on a flute. This experience has shown us that people usually want the deepest tone that is comfortable to play. The Middle G , F# and F have pleasing voices, and the finger hole spacing is easy for first-timers. Adults with small hands and children 12 and over play these keys with ease.

 

Here's a fact.
Flutes improve with age.  We don't know why this is and there are many theories out there about why this might be. The important thing is, the sound quality improves with age. So an old flute isn't like an old loaf of bread.  It's more like a vintage wine.
