Native American Style Flutes by Werner John
FLUTEWALKER makes high quality musical instruments. These flutes are based on traditional Indian designs with a focus on enhanced musicality.  The player has a greater range, quality and reliability of notes through unique features and precision crafting.  For example, the absorbent ceramic windway design solves all condensation problems and maintains the instrument's rich sound for hours in any kind of weather.  Click the flute types below to find out more.

Winnipesaukee 6-hole Flute

The Winnipesaukee is our most versatile flute.  This acoustically perfected design comes in 17 pitches and two styles.  The traditional model has an external "bird" carving (above), and a simpler one-piece variation is called the "backpack" Winnipesaukee.

5-hole River Flute

The River Flute is a simple design recreating the acoustic of a river cane flute from the midwest prairie.  With its narrow bore and high pitch it has a traditional voice which carries well in the open air.

Lake Spirit Chromatic Flute

The Lake Spirit is a deep and rich sounding Native flute in "F".  It has an extra sound hole for each hand which extends the scale and makes it possible to play this one flute in many keys.  Expand your repertoire and your expressiveness with the Lake Spirit.

Little Tree Mini-flutes

The Little Tree flute is unique. Just 11 inches long, it plays at the mellow pitch of flutes twice its length. It's an easy travel companion playable by all ages four and up.  Even at this small size it plays the full range of notes with many in-tune chromatics.
