E5 branch in Rhododendron, bright litte player! $175

G4 Quilted Maple tuned to A430 (Mozart’s preferred tuning). I let flutes tell me where they want to land, tone- wise, and this one was it, hands down. GO TO CHIMNEY ROCK FLUTES LINK… guessing it sold long ago

B3 A432 in lightly figured Mahogany, with natural ‘gator’ piece of found wood, on Walnut base.Lightly staggered finger holes for L over R players. $340

Ab4 in figured Chechen, with Black Walnut sweeptail bird. $295

***Just a note about the Spalted Tamarind I procured a few montsh ago. There is a lot of spalting in most of my pieces, which is fungus doing it’s ‘thing’ in wood…you can have spalting in just about any wood under the right circumstances. My pieces of this wood will require a great amount of stabilizing with non-toxic, food- safe materials, and I mean on the order of taking a week or more for curing and drying days in my multi-stage process. I finish my fancy-grained woods with gloss wipe-on poly, which accentuates the patterns and seals this wood for a lifetime to come. More boards of this unusual wood await, which means more flutes coming out…in time. :-)

D5 in Black Walnut with a Spalted Hackberry sweeptail bird. ADOPTED!
