If you really and seriously want a flute, I can find a listing for one and forward it to you. Or I can forward you a seller and you make your own choice. I suggest a flute tuned to the key of G, for starters. It is a very common choice. Also need to know how much is in your intended budget for one. Entry level seems to run under $100 for a new one. Used ones are all over the place in price, and I suggest as a beginner to avoid such. Mainly because it takes experience in making a good choice in such.caveman, once last year I checked out some flutes on line. But there were too many questions like what key(?) or ?? did you want it in? That stopped me. How do I know? Some are large ones and I figure my pretty, petite little digits could not span the range of them. Maybe I need a kid's size flute or one pre-loaded with pleasant songs, so people will think I am doing it. Like a player piano. Too many decisions. If I knew the answers I might have been playing back in my cradle days.
Stay away from Quena, and most bamboo flutes, as well as side blown ones.
