The Native American flute is a simple musical instrument, traditional to many indigenous cultures of North America. Often called "the love flute" because of its potent sweet quality, it was often used by young men in courting. The legends and stone paintings of Kokopelli, the hunchback flute player, abound in the southwest USA where he came to many people, bringing his gifts and song. The flute was and is used by many tribes as a sacred instrument, to offer prayer through the power of song. It is by far the simplest instrument to play which we make.

These flutes are traditionally tuned to minor pentatonic scales (5 hole, 5 note), which make them especially easy to learn musically.

Sunreed makes these concert-quality instruments to their own designs. They are made of bamboo, with a hardwood "bird" fitting, and rawhide strap. They have the same rich and haunting tones as the more traditional cedar and hardwood flutes. The traditional flute comes pitched in the keys of G and F (size ranges from 17 to 22 inches, respectively.

Each flute comes with complete instructions and a protective cloth bag.
