    Thats Isharn Priestly's flutes, he started making them a few years ago.
    I have played one and I can say they are of the finest tuning and workmanship, infact these are probhably some of the best overtone flutes in the world. Another world class product handmade in the famous Rainbow Region of Northern NSW. I am suprised I don't own one yet, probhably would if I didn't have to pay so many bills.

    Yes they are basically the same as Native American Style sound mechanism well actually identical in design, but the flutes are made from copper or silver piping. Can be made from bamboo or wood too I guess. I think the Primal Spirit ones are quite unique in terms of using this design. I like the flutes and like the guy, nice bloke.
