Wood quena flute, 'Song of the Andes'
By Grayce
Tuned bone mouth Jacaranda Quena
Quena and carrying case are beautiful, very well made, the service was excellent and the instrument arrived exactly when expected. I am new to playing quena, professional on other instruments. This instrument plays in tune. With my beginning player skill level I got an F# major scale for the bottom octave (the instrument will play higher with a more skilled player). Therefore I was able to play Amazing Grace in B major, using the bottom octave of the quena. The tip to use the pinkie to hold the quena when the holes are uncovered came in very handy for the top notes of the song. The quena is resonant and produces a wonderful rich tone. My daughter loved it so the quena is hers now. I need to save up for one for me or borrow it back! Thank you Benito for making this wonderful instrument. We love it. I hope you are able to continue making traditional instruments.

Winning Gift
My 10 year old nephew loved this gift! Paired it with the Audio CD, World Playground by Putumayo for a unique and educational gift. Great gift for one of those kids who already gets all the cool stuff from their parents.
Wood quena flute, 'Jacaranda'
By Alexandra
Phenomenal Craftsmanship
This Jacaranda flute is an immediate hit. Everything you know about commercially sold flutes is erased when you hold Mr. Tiros flute in your hands. The smooth finish, the weight, the color, and sound are gorgeous. If you manage to produce sounds from the ute youll notice the sounds come off more crisp than cheap flutes. The flute comes in a beautifully sewn pouch for storage, protection, and travel. This is a lovely gift for anyone.
