Alaskan Yellow Cedar Drone Flute
Finest Quality, Hand Made |
Recording Artist and Performer 'Charlie Wayne' Watson (left) is seen here with his Zuni Drone Flute which he used on several tracks on his CD album which was named 'Waking Spirit' in my honor. I was honored again when I had the pleasure of meeting Charlie Wayne in Georgia earlier in 2004. This photograph was taken in his yard - just a few steps from his 'Desert Winds' recording studio. |
Greetings & Blessings 'I had my eyes on the Zuni Drone Flute for sometime and finally ordered one in the key of E. I was so impressed by the sound and workman ship that on the day I received the Zuni, I ordered the Alaskan Yellow Cedar Drone in the key of Mid A . Both of these Drones have a great voice, the workmanship on both Drones is outstanding, Vance did a great job of making these Flutes. As a performer I appreciate outstanding workmanship.' Thanks Vance Eagle Cloud
