The khlui phīang aw is the most popular type of khlui.It has a moderate range of pitch, not too high or low. It is vertical duct flute with eight tone holes. At mouthpiece there is a solid wooden block ("dak"Thai: ดาก), similar to that of a recorder (musical instrument).
Like the mouthpiece inlay, this protects the bore from taking on excess moisture and contributes to the flute's longevity. Lacking urushi and a mouthpiece inlay, hotchiku gradually take on moisture as they are played, making the tone less stable.

Pads, springs, felt and natural cork are imported from Italy and synthetic cork is imported from France.
Modern brass instruments however generally make use of the full length of the instrument for every pitch, and are therefore significantly affected by the effects of the mouthpiece and bell. These modify the instrument's resonances to closely resemble that of a conical pipe, even if the bore is mostly cylindrical. [2]
