Flute Catalog
The flutes shown below are a representative sampling of what I make and currently have available. Each flute is carefully tuned to both mode 1 and mode 4 of the pentatonic scale. Regardless of key, the playing holes are spaced the same distance apart which makes them easy to play and to switch from flutes of one key to another.
Should you prefer a particular flute but in a different wood than the one shown, I can make it for you. However, I have found that when I begin making a flute, the final shape and key are often somewhat different than what I had in mind. You might say that the spirit of the wood has a mind of its own. Also, a flute might have a specific "caretaker" in mind, something that is not revealed until that person is guided to my site and contacts me. Please allow three to four weeks for special orders.
Over the years I have been making flutes, I have found it best to talk with a perspective flute "caretaker" before finalizing an order and I still like to do that. However, I have also found that getting back to people can be cumbersome, so I have added a shopping cart and a secure payment system. You can still contact me directly by visiting the "contact us" page, or you can use the shopping cart and pay via a credit card through Paypal. Either way, your information remains safe and secure.
Payment options
To order a flute, please choose one of the following options.
1. Simply click on the "add to cart" button next to the desired flute and follow the steps to pay using Paypal. (Best way)
2. Jot down the flute number and description, go to the "contact us" page and fill out the requested information. I will then contact you at your specified time and we can finalize the order.
3. Try contacting me via phone at (603) 968-2171. You will probably have to leave a message, as this is the home phone. I will get back to you as soon as possible.
4. Order by mail, including a check made out to Raven Song Flutes, a money order or credit card number. I only accept Visa and Mastercard. Include the card number, expiration date and the three digit security code on the back of the card next to the signature block. Also the name of the person on the card. Be sure to include the flute number and a brief description from this site. Also include a phone number I can reach you at if necessary. Send it to: Gerry Ouellette, Raven Song Flutes, P. O. Box 955, Plymouth, New Hampshire, 03264.
Please note: All prices include insured shipping via USPS Priority Mail within the United States. Foreign orders, including Canada, please contact me for shipping cost.
All flutes come with a fleece bag. Should you desire a leather bag, I recommend you use the fleece bag as an inner liner to prevent oils from the leather from damaging the finish on your flute.

These flutes are really beautiful and they sound as good as they look. Made of a variety of woods from the North Eastern part of the United States, they have real wood inlay as well as being ringed with powdered stone mixed with epoxy.

Seven Arrows Flutes
These flutes are truly special. They have wood inlay and are decorated with seven rings representing the Seven Arrows. The broad band of Turquoise at the mouth end of the flute represents the Creator. The blue band represents The Above and the green band the Below. At the other end of the flute are the Four Directions represented by White for North, Red for East, Black for West and Yellow for South. These are also the four colors of man. The craftsmanship is excellent and the sound is incredible.
