With roots in both military tradition and early American entertainment, the fife holds a unique place in history. Used in the 18th century to signal commands and mark the daily rhythm of camp life, fifes were typically played by boys as young as twelve, alongside drummers in each regiment. Beyond the battlefield, the fife brought lively tunes like jigs and reels to colonial gatherings.

This 6-holed fife is modeled after traditional designs and measures 16½ inches in length, offering an authentic sound and feel. Whether you're a history enthusiast, reenactor, or musician, this instrument is a meaningful tribute to early American life.
