  • Grenadilla: great sound stability. Its vibration is optimal, the musician will feel a real presence of wood in his sonority as well as great playing flexibility with more staggered reports from one tone to another. This very resistant wood is the most used for heads or wooden flutes, originating from Africa.
  • Mopane: for a gain in sound power, but while maintaining a softness in the timbre. A sound soul as deep as grenadilla, but more powerful with a clearly superior projection. The articulations are easily made, and it is very easy to have a very dark and stable high for richer and more powerful lows or mediums. In short: a head for more fantasy in your sonority.
  • Cocus: for a very pure and heavy timbre. More flexible than grenadilla, you can vary your sound color thanks to its beautiful dynamic sound range. Lively and powerful, this wood provides a clear improvement in the width of the sound with a beautiful balance in all registers. The attack is fast and reactive, very flattering: trying it is adopting it! Wood originating from the West Indies, reddish-brown tint with dark black streaks.
  • Cocobolo: luxurious-looking wood, it is also ideal for seeking projection with minimal effort, while benefiting from an impressive sound width. The high register is shimmering, the lows are rather powerful with very incisive attacks. Originating from Mexico, Panama, and Nicaragua, Cocobolo can be yellowish, orange, red, with brown shades with black streaks.
  • Olive: This magnificent wood offers a unique sound timbre. The present sound width is wrapped in a very present and lively timbre, which supports a very efficient projection with impressive stability. The articulations are reactive, clean, and easy. Originating from the south and east of the Mediterranean, its appearance is light golden with black streaks: superb!
