Another Robertson here! I live in Canada, but I'm pure Scots... at least that's what the family tree says. Father born in Edinburgh, mother born in Nairn. Love the whistle, been playing for about three years, although I've been missing it lately because I've been distracted away from it. :sniffle: M...

Can't go wrong with a Silkstone alloy soprano D... I've had mine for a year and it's great - no moisture build-up in the windway, excellent volume, superb craftsmanship and it looks good too. My only complaints would be that it is VERY loud in the upper second octave, and it's quite heavy so if you ...

My Laughing whistle was the same: clogging up quite a bit at first, but after weeks of playing it got much better. I guess the owner's manual forgot to mention break-in! Lovely whistle though... so crisp and clean in the second (even third) octave. Quiet too - great for late night tootling. Give it ...

Tinkerbell would be proud! We need more festivals here in Canada, and more people like you to make them fun. I am often envious when I read about all those fantastic gatherings in the USA... perhaps it's time for me to relocate...? Keep spreading the sunshine, and I'll let you know when we need you ...

Well done! Another Cillian O Briain convert. I have had one for some time, and it's my favourite Low D next to my Copeland - I even like the O Briain better than my Overton. Cillian does excellent work and Steve is a great guy to deal with. It's a match made in heaven: A superior product with a supe...
