 ... let's try a flute in aluminum, instead of steel, and then in iron ... think it will sound good? How about in wood?
 

Wow, a wood flute???  Now THAT would be something new and different!

jbow, I sent you a PM

I have one hanging on my wall. When I first bought it I really liked it. I think they make a great fill in for a guy who only has room for one or two guitars and wants to have all of the guitar sounds. 
 
Since I took up Violin lessons and Bouzouki I haven't touched it much. I guess it's not really the instrument, just the way I'm using my time lately...so it just gathers dust and probably needs new strings. 
The alternate tuning does take some getting used to.

I've been wanting one for sometime.......I think it'll serve me really well as I can't afford to buy all those guitars it does. I still won't give up playing the lotto.
