Hi Folks! I will not be making any new flutes for a couple of months. I will be uploading all the current stock to the website www.nightstarflutes.co.uk over the next two days. Go to the gallery and use the filter 'flutes available to buy'. Walk in beauty one and all 🙂
Sound check in G.
the lap steel is at last with Duncan..... I think he likes it!
Bear motif burnt onto the F# cedar drone as requested. This one goes out on Monday.
The three amigos now finished! All from cedar of lebanon. Keys are, the big one C, the middle is E and the smaller one is F#. They should all be at Glastonbury at the end of the month... unless you want one now... just message me! :)
F# ready for a new home and the big bad boy coming along.
Drone time in the workshop. Some beautifully figured grain in this cedar of lebanon, difficult to work as the 'twisted grain' has a lot of tension in it and loves to wander once you cut and remove some stock.
Just need some strings then!
A photo journey of building one of my lap steels. Click photos for descriptions of what's what!
These three just gone on the website... email, phone or message me if you'd like to own one!! :) www.nightstarflutes.co.uk

Hi folks! Just to let you know the website is updated with some of the current stock available to buy now. :)
What an experience! Despite the heat i had the most enjoyable experience making my own flute. The best workshop ever and would highly recommend it to anyone who's interested in the native american style flutes. Thank you Steve.
Top job Stevie, multi instrument maker, ���
Thankyou for the flute i purchased today at the enchanted market. I can't stop playing it. Feels like I've had it ages. I love it x
Thank you so much for today. We came up to make our first flutes today and can not recommend this enough. Steve was brilliant talking through every step making sure we were confident with everything we were doing. We will enjoy learning how to play.
Nice!
My new Native American Style Flute arrived today from Steve Frost of Nightstar Flutes. This beautifully crafted instrument is a Drone Flute made from English Yew and is in the Key of F#. It has a fumed Oak block and a Sycamore mouth piece.
The intonation of this flute is spot-on and the flute sounds beautifully ethereal and haunting when I play it. As soon as I saw this flute I had to have it. It is everything I am about, in a flute! And Steve was brilliant right from start when I wanted this flute. He kept in touch throughout the building process, sending me photographs and updates as the flute was being made.
As soon as the flute was ready he posted it securely packaged in a strong cardboard tube. When it arrived it was perfect in every way and I was delighted to see the flute also came with a high quality cloth flute bag. If you are thinking of buying a Native American Style Flute, weather you are in the UK or anywhere in the world, then buy one from Steve and Nightstar Flutes. You will be taken on a musical journey that will start here and last a lifetime.
I am so happy with my flute. It is beautiful and i am so happy with the detail, love and care that was put into making it. It is a joy to play.
Hi Steve, really great meeting you at weird and wonderful wood today, we love our Celtic flute and have been practising on utube (thanks so much today for your time) and wishing you all the success - will recommend you to my friends xx.
Have a couple of flutes from this great man Steve Frost (the play really well) and went yesterday to make my own flute to his workshop in Kettering. It was a fantastic experience, fun, nurturing and then you walk out of there with your own flute and having seen and experienced how these beautiful instruments are made. Very happy and grateful.
Had a wonderful day making my flute. Guided gently and coached by Steve Frost. He is a great guy, skilled craftsman and brilliant teacher and coach. His enthusiasm, and love of what he does, made the day a very special one, and not just for joy and accomplishment of making the flute, or ending up with a beautiful instrument.
Great guy, wonderful flutes, my new companion flute is delightful & I have eyes on another of Steve's creations.
Got my flute through the post and I love it! The craftsmanship is amazing. What a brilliant service - knowledgeable, no-fuss and friendly. Would definitely recommend!!
Beautiful flute, sounds amazing, fast delivery! Would recommend to anyone who wants such an awesome piece of instrument!
Amazing tutor! I've just had the BEST day making my own Native American flute ���
