Value that goes beyond the price tag. Peace to all the artisans who bring the natural beauty of life (unlike the radical "new" electronic toys that even babies are accustomed to). Thank you for bringing joy to the world.

I'm still just learning to play this beautiful quena, but the care and craftsmanship that went into making it inspires me to keep practicing!

Tuned bone mouth Jacaranda Quena

Product picture

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.
