With the ability to play the chromatic scale and minor pentatonic scale, this flute is versatile and expressive.  A sound sample of this flute is track # 10 in the "sound" section. Flute is protected inside and out with multiple coats of an all natural finish, and buffed with a three step process . *Note: It is highly reccomended to store flute away from light in a flute bag to help preserve the bright coloring of the flame box elder wood--small flute bags are available for purchase seperately.
