Great opportunity. I suspected he had a few in stock since he listed one on ebay.

I'm one of two people who bought one of these from Michael on eBay in the last week for basically the same price he's offering here.

I told him C&F would be a great place to offer his flutes and that he should contact Dale.

Michael Cronnolly's website includes some helpful and humorous instructional materials, as well as 13 (yes, thirteen!) tunes played at full and half-speed, so that you can learn them.

He IS a prince of a guy!

I might take him up on this offer. Good way to start.

Wow, this is great. I recommend everyone who doesn't own an M&E to get one now. These are great flutes. In terms of the sound and playability compaired to other flutes, these could easily sell for three times the price.

Thanks to "The Undisputed" for his indulgence in the following:

Hi All,

I've recently worked out an arrangement with Michael to be his USA distributor for the R&R polymer flutes.
If you live in the US send me an email and I'll get you set up.

If you are in Great Britain or Europe contact Michael directly.

If you live in Bangladesh you may flip a coin.

I have several flutes in stock here in the USA for immediate shipment and, mercy, they are mighty! One of them has rings the others are ringless.

Please contact me via email if you're ready for one.

Cheers,

Doc

That may be, but the important thing is . . . can they be played in the pool?

Well, not underwater, you'd never get it to sound!

As long as your head and the flute stay above water, though, go for it! Water certainly won't hurt the flute.

Yes, also in the bathtub.

Oh, and, they make great snorkels as long as you cover the finger holes.
