David Lusk Bio

David Lusk is a master flute maker who specialized in making customized, handmade gold and silver symphonic flutes and head joints.  He serviced woodwinds and manufactured parts for new and antique flutes for over 40 years. He began designing and building handmade flutes and head joints during the early 80’s after apprenticing with the Landell Flute Company in Vermont.  He is retired from servicing classical flutes, piccolos, and clarinets.

Currently, Dave is happily hand-crafting Native American style flutes from wood.  Doing so unites his love of flute-building and woodworking with his love of music, knowledge of acoustics, and the intricacies of  instrument design.  He enjoys adding unique artwork to each flute he designs and makes.

Dave lives in the Cincinnati area. His customers live throughout the world.
