I get lots of requests for 'deep tones' in a flute. Here's one answer to these requests. Mind you, this is not a small flute. If your hands/arms are short or small, this won't work for you. However, if you can handle this piece, I think you'll be happy with the tone and the beauty of this instrument. (See measurements below!)
Not only is this instrument a fine work of art, but an exceptional flute, as well. The tone is big, rich and strong. It plays the extended scale well, too. You can listen to examples of this instrument below. Also, more detailed pictures follow. Measurements at bottom of page.

Pay attention to the measurements from the mouthpiece to the top hole and distance to the bottom hole as well as the spacing between the furthest holes on the south end when determining fit for your hands. The holes on this flute are fairly evenly spaced. (Not for small or stiff hands.)
