This instrument is one of the easiest to learn and most fun to play that I've found. While it is made of PVC rather than the traditional wood, the distinctive sound is still present. The flute has a range including A bellow middle C and a chromatic scale starting at middle C to one octave above middle C. Documentation that comes with the flute includes instructions how to play, music for a variety of songs, and maintenance instructions. I highly recommend the Sounds We Make Native American Flute for both inexperienced musicians as well as experienced musicians looking for a unique instrument.

This flute is good for children/beginners. Because it's plastic, you can drop it or play with it outside without having to worry about damaging it too much.

It actually has a pretty decent tone for a piece of plastic. The sound is more clear and consice compared to other plastic and toy flutes.

However, for the same price, you can find nicer native american flutes made of Cedar wood on ebay. Note, this flute is made of a cheap plastic and looks and feels like a toy. However, like I said before, it's good for kids that abuse and don't take good care of their toys.

This is not a Native American Flute. This is a piece of PVC pipe with holes cut into it. A Native American Flute, a good one, is simple to play and requires little effort. This is neither and should not be sold advertised as a NAF at all. If you want a good beginners flute, then please buy a real one from Stellar Flutes or any of the many other fine flute makers out there.

This flute is really an exceptional product. If you have even a remote interest in this flute you should get it. Why? 1. Very easy for a beginning player to start making cool sounding music even if you do not play anything wind related. 2. Allows you the ability to add nuances and articulations so even skilled players will find it worthwhile. 3. Great sound for any price. Have played expensive hand made NA flutes and this one actually manages to compete with them. 4. Ease of playability is very nice, the holes are small and not far apart so there is no strain on the hand. 5. Intonation is good enough for ensemble contexts. The one I got though, is in Ab Minor pentatonic not A Minor Pentatonic. Some notes are more difficult to get in tune, although they get easy as you get more of a feel for them. 6. very chill and relaxing instrument for kicking back as well as for "shredding". 7. Very Durable, can be knocked around. 8. Price 9. You can decorate it however badass you want. 10. I actually like it enough to have written this much in a review for it. Ive recorded it as well and have been able to make it sound extremely legit especially after optimizing the sound. It plays Minor pentatonic, Mixolydian, Phrygian Major, Gypsy Major, and Dorian scales very nicely. Possible (I've found so far) notes Are A, C, C#, D, E, F, F#, G, G#, a, a#, b , c, c#. Theres probably more than this. Minimal breathe needed, I can play for a minute straight nice and steady. Vibratos can be manipulated rather dramatically and expressively. Sounds like the movies, you would fit in playing this thing in the woods while camping and hunting. Bottom Line, Get it Since you are checking it out and thus must have all the interest you need to really enjoy this instrument. Easy, Cheap, Expressive, And Impressive
