Backpacker Flute
Backpacker Native American style flute
Our Backpacker flute is not a so-called beginner’s flute. It is made to the same design parameters as our other more expensive flutes and sounds the same as the more expensive flutes.
The Backpacker Native American style flute is made of a single wood species. This flute has a simple, low profile bird. A select buckskin thong goes through a hole in the bird and ties it securely to the nest of the flute. The Backpacker flute has a single coat of polyurethane varnish on the interior surfaces and two coats of varnish on the exterior. The slow air chamber is sealed with epoxy resin. The exterior surface is sanded and buffed out to a smooth semi gloss. The backpacker is a robust, all terrain instrument.
The Backpacker flute is available in Cherry, Zebrawood, Walnut and Purpleheart.
