Hi Michael,

your website have been of great help for me chosing instruments THANKS.

About your latest flute (McGee)I must say thats the sound I like best of all your flutes. I´m thinking on start playing a keyless flute and I have contacted Terry McGee and Rod Cameron. Your clip of the “Terry-flute” is the first I hear and I wrote Terry an email a couple of minutes after I heard it, thanks!

The whistle clips is very nice also I think. I´m a newbie whistler and have a couple of Clarkes and Waltons while I wait for some Copelands and Abells.

What is it you call it… WHOA, I confess… I have it BIG TIME :slight_smile:
