The Native Flute Totems Series is part of our exclusive collection Native Flute Ashar style NAF (Native American Flute). It is a flute with 5 or 6 holes of musical notes that reproduce the minor pentatonic scale. The flute has a whistle and the air is directed to the whistle by a block in animal shape that represents the spirit of the flute.
We produce the Native Totems flutes in 6 tunings that cover the keys of the middle range. Being G (SOL4) the flute of shortest length and standard tuning, then in order from shortest length and high pitch to longer length and medium/low tones we have: F# (FA#4), F (FA4), E (MI4), D (RE4) and C (DO4), the latter being the longest flute in length and lowest pitch.
For a first contact with the instrument, we recommend tuning A or G because they are smaller flutes and F# because it is the classic tuning of the native flute.
The bamboo selected for these flutes is of high acoustic quality, with thick walls. The bamboos are dried in the shade for at least 6 months, treated and sealed to withstand time and variations in humidity, temperature and antifungal protection.
The mouthpiece of the NAF Totems Series flute is made of wood and glued to the bamboo body.
The NAF Totems Series is magnetized with the energy of the Animals through painting with acrylic paint. After painting, we apply 3 layers of acrylic varnish and a layer of natural varnish Indian shellac on top. Each flute is hand-painted and has colors inspired by the animal.
