Yes, Rose's flute are amazing!
Mine is a mopane one, 2 pieces, and the sound may be extremely different according to the way you blow; I can get very a interesting sound, that I can't get with other flutes.

I bought another flute from afamous French maker, ebony, but came back to my Rose flute.

I wish he made C flutes!

Anyone have a Fred Rose flute? Or just played one?

I have played a Fred Rose flute and whistle for years, Both are very fine instruments. The craftsmanship is superb. Highly reccomended.

The flute I have is a two piece rosewood keyless flute but shall be getting back in touch to see what he is making these days.
