I have an Ellis resin infused maple keyless if interested. Really nice flute and can handle the elements like a synthetic.

No help at all, but I have one and really like it a lot. Currently the headjoint is mated to a 19th century cocus 8-key body and the combination is a joy to play. I wish Geoffrey would go back to making them

Here's one for sale on FB:
