Try the Chiff & Fipple board (http://chiffboard.mati.ca). You will find at least a half-dozen people there who tried the M&E. It's a little more expensive than my current limit for a high D price. But by all means contact Michael Cronnolly. He's a great guy.

What's new about Hammy's practice flute? Is it still the aluminum job?

I have an M&E, although only a novice , but I can recommend it for the quality , and it is tunable, and it appears to be bullet proof ; as for volume my girlfriend seems to find it quite (too)loud???

They always do! :-) It's their way to say they appreciate our playing.

Actually the waiting list for the Olwell is quite long for the keyless / keyed flutes. Mr Olwell makes the bamboo flutes in batches and will there will be a fairly short waiting time for the bamboo flutes actually.

I decided to go for the Dixon three piece flute. Didn't regret that for one second, but I don't have any experience with either the Olwell or the Hamilton unfortunately.

Wish I could hear some soundclips :)
