I got to see these up close, real works of art as you would expect from Cody and the sound from them is outstanding when Cody plays. You have many talents Cody. :)

Cody, do you know Rand Rowe? He was at the Classic last year selling his flutes. Rand is a great guy and very generous with his info. You can contact him at Catahoula Flutes or with a PM here. Rand is a member..
 Nice flutes by the way, but coming from you I'm not surprised.  8)

 Thanks everyone.  Pat, I picked Rands brain at the classic, after seeing his flutes I wanted to finally build my own. They are addicting too!
