I have an 8-key with a 6-key Eb on order. Awesome, awesome flute. Based on Rudall&Rose, but from my understanding Glenn's own design. It's lightweight, key touches are in perfect spots for me, and can be pushed hard if you want to. Second octave is a dream. Can't go wrong with his flutes for sure.
I do have his 6-key, never looked back. Perfect craftsmanship, light, easy to play, great tone, deep low D and precise on both octaves. Drives like a Ferrari. Great value for money, and Glenn has a very professional approach to deadlines and quality.
If I had some cash to spend, I'd buy his Eb model. It is a magnificient flute.

Anybody out there got a Glen Watson flute? Keyed or keyless?
I would appreciate your opinion on them.
