Favorite whistles

Instruments- discuss specific whistle features, brands, tweaking, problems, questions

Thank you, Keith, i'll check for that book.  

Could you please help me with making choice?) Just imagine, that you have 14-years-old son, who wants flute for his birthday

Which one flute would you buy? I found 3 flute:

1. Selmer Prelude FL711

2. Kaizer FLT-1500NK

3.  Gemeinhardt 2BLK

The first one is quiet good, and it's written that, it's designed for small fingers, and this is very good in my situation.

The second one cheaper twice, and i don't know, may be it would be better to take this one, and if he likes playing flute, we'll buy him more expensive and more professional flute after some times, and if he doesn't like we won't loose much.

The money is not the main criteria, but it's important for me, because i'm student

The third one my teacher recommended to me, but i want to hear some more opinions)

Very grateful for your help!

Which whistle do you recommend to start with to my 14-years-old brother? Open or close holes? Apologize for writing here, but i haven't found appropriate topic on this forum, btw i was trying to find smth like "Flute for beginners"  

What other instruments do you like to play?

Adventures with 'other' instruments...

Acoustic guitar - my choice to make my neighbours happy ;D Seriously, i play guitar for more then 10 years, and it's getting less funny and interesting for me, but i keep playing sometimes. Now i try to learn play flute as good as i play guitar, or even better(i'm not sure for that)
