NATIVE AMERICAN FLUTES FOR SALE
I usually have a few pre-owned flutes for sale. I buy flutes from other players, recording artists, collectors, and estates. All flutes shown are in stock and available. When one sells (or is reserved with a deposit), I remove it. All prices shown are for customers within the continental US, and plus shipping.
Don't hesitate to ask for more photos or sound samples. I limited them to 1 picture each here to save time and space.
Reach out to me if you are interested in one of these. I have others that I haven't listed as well. Ask if you are looking for something you don't see here.

Maker: Colyn Petersen
Brand: Woodland Voices
Key: F# 432Hz
Primary Material: Alaskan Cedar
Price: $400 plus shipping
Notes: F# 432 by Colyn Petersen. The flute is made of pale Alaskan cedar, with a pyrography Thunderbird design at the foot. It is well tuned and has a great voice. Not a good choice for playng with backing tracks, as they are typically not in 432. But as a solo instrument, or when playing with others and their 432 flutes, it can't be beat.
Maker: Theodore Ceplina
Model: Ho-Chunk Replica
Price: $400 plus shipping
Notes: Theodore Ceplina is best known for his replicas of Native American flutes. This is a replica of a Ho-Chunk (or Winnebego) flute. It is NOT tuned to Pentagonic Minor as are most modern flutes. It has a metal spacer and 3 wire wraps.

Primary Material: ??
Price: $150 plus shipping
Notes: This is a sweet little flute. Maker and age unknown. I do not suspect it to be 'old'. It's tuned to Pentatonic Minor Ab. It has a nice turquoise/greenish paint in the low spots. It has a tall chimney, but it doesn't warble (at least not for me.)
Maker: Paul Thompson (1949-2021)
Tribe: Navajo
Key: D
Primary Material: Cedar

Maker: Guillermo Martinez
Brand: Quetzalcoatl Music
Model: Southern Flute

Key: F 432 Hz
Primary Material: Walnut (I think)

Maker: Scott Loomis
Brand: Wind's Song
Key: G
Primary Material: Cedar
Price: $150 plus shipping - Sold
Notes: 1995 Cedar G by Scott Loomis. Loomis flutes are simply beautiful - beautifully simple. They have been used by many recoding artists on their albums and in soundtracks. This one has a hand signed makers-mark, but it is very faint - required a magnafying glass to read.
Maker: Jon Norris
Model: Transverse - Akebono
Key: B
Primary Material: Maple
Price: $200 plus shipping
Notes: This photo doesn't do justice to the beauty of this flute. The tiger maple has a wonderful stripe effect, and there is an engraved silver medalian as an end cap. I do not know if it is actually silver or just a silvery. This flute has 4 finger holes on the top and a thumb hole on back. This a flute for someone with long arms. (I'm 5'8" and struggle with it.)
Notes: This flute plays beautifully. It is in excellent shape but has a couple of cosmetics blemishes, and the price reflects that. You can see in the picture how the block has a couple staines under the clear finish. There are a couple other small spots where the wood has a pale spot, also under the finish. I'll send detailed pics to those who are interested. I do not know what type of wood this is made of.
