Martin Doyle’s Weblog

Martin Doyle has just received a very kind testimonial from John Wood of London. John has recently purchased a keyless Martin Doyle flute made of African Blackwood (without a tuning slide) from All Flutes Plus in London and had this to say about his purchase:

“[...] I bought a keyless (no tuning slide) Traditional Blackwood flute at All Flutes Plus just three days ago and I cannot believe that I can finally play the Irish flute… (well starting to anyway). I have been playing the Uilleann Pipes and whistle and a wooden Boehm-system flute for years, but everytime I would try the “Irish” flute I would hide it back in the sock drawer after half an hour and there it would stay for another 3 or 4 months. Evertime I tried it I would end up exhausted and irritated beyond words… Why could I not sound like everyone else I heard playing this *&^%$^ thing. Now I pick up your flute and everyday it is playing easier, sweeter, stronger! Amazing! There are so many choices out there but believe me, I made the right choice when I bought a Martin Doyle flute.”

Many thanks to John Wood for his kind and encouraging contribution. You will find his full tesimonial and many others on Martin Doyle’s Testimonials page.
