I bought this beautiful Casey Burns Folk Flute many years ago and never managed to get the hang of it the way I did with Tin Whistles.
This Flute is in mint condition.
Here is how Casey Burns describes this model on his website:
made of well-proven tonewood
- has a traditional conical bore
- speaks easily, with strong low D
- has correct intonation
- can keep up in a session
- is comfortable to the hands
- is aesthetically attractive
More from Casey's Site:
The Folk Flute is a three-piece wooden flute for playing traditional music including Irish music: nothing more, but nothing less!Crafted individually by hand in America from African Blackwood by an artisan flute maker with 32 years experience, each Folk Flute is unique and will only gain character and depth of tone with age--as will all traditional wooden flutes. It is designed for:
- beginning and intermediate wooden flute players
- beginning Irish music players
- whistle players getting a "first flute"
- younger flute players
- experienced players with limited budgets
- experienced players who want a fine instrument for travel
- players who want a great instrument with a proven track record
If you're looking for a brand new one go to Casey's site:
Mine was barely used and I would like to see it go to a good home.
It comes with a stitched cloth case
