The Lon Dubh Delrin Flute
The Lon Dubh flute produces a strong clear tone, making it ideal for traditional music sessions. It's made using a very durable material called polymer Delrin which is extremely dense and gives great resonance, consistency, and an excellent sound and range. It's also at home in any climate and is virtually maintenance free! This flute will ensure that the student's progress is not limited by an inferior beginner instrument.
Key Features of The Lon Dubh Delrin Flute:
- Key of D
- Simple-system, conical bore, Irish Flute
- 8 Tone Holes
- Smaller embouchure for easy fill
- Tuning Slide
- A favourite of intermediate and advanced intermediate players
- Produces a deeper more traditional tone than a lot of wooden flutes
- Named the Lon Dubh, (pronounced "Lun-Dove") which is the Irish or Gaelic for "blackbird", due to its rich melodious sound
- Good intonation
- As Delrin is practically indestructible, it's known to last for years and can be passed down from generation to generation
Manufacturing
A lot of time and precision goes into the making of our flutes. We use an advanced sealing technique which ensures that the flute doesn't leak precious air and enables you to produce that all important strong low D.
Our careful and precise tuning process during the manufacturing stage means you can play each note in tune with confidence and ease leaving you to focus on your performance and our tuning slide ensures you’ll always be able to adjust the pitch to adapt to any playing situation from a session environment to outdoor recitals and everything in between.
Comes with a Premium flute box!

Even beyond one year we will service the flute e.g. replace corks etc., for a nominal fee.
