Hey all. The whistle has been sold (first come first serve ). Thanks for all the interest. And if i have time i'll try to put up a sound clip before i ship it off to the lucky new owner.

no haven't posted any sound clip yet. But hopefully i'll have one up by saturday afternoon. I've got an 14 hour shift tomorrow so saturday i should have it done.

ok so i'm not so sure how to post pictures, and i have pretty much no time to do this so heres a link: http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=2092581683 sorry the pictures were taken with my camera phone since my digital camera seems to be on the fritz. Let me know if you want better pic...

It was painted when I got it, atleast I'm pretty sure it is, I'll post an image hopefully later tonight or tomorrow.

Hey all I'm thinking about selling my Glenn Schultz Water Weasel in D (soprano). I don't really play it as much as it should be played. Its non-tunable and it's engraved date is 5/2005. It has zero scratches on it, and I still have the original plastic case it came in. It doesn't have the PVC code o...

hey nice recording. Yeah I love my feadog, and breath control isn't really an issue anymore since i've been practicing with it for the last year ( i figured if i could make a feadog sound sweet then i'd have breath control down pact). I guess what i was looking for was something quieter than the fea...

hey thanks for all the responses-especially the sound clip. It seems to sound almost just like a feadog that's been tweaked; so other than the backpressure is there really anything different between the two (sound wise) other than the 10:1 price difference?

Hey all it's been a while since i last posted, but I'm feelin the WHoA once again. I'm interested in getting a soft/quieter whistle than what i have now (so i don't drive my roommates crazy-or next door neighbors). So i saw that the alba Q1 soprano whistle is supposed to be a quiet whistle and i fig...

it gets sooo much worse the more whistles you buy. I have about 10, half cheapies half not. And even though I'm buying my 11th one right now (a GFM low F) i still feel that need to "play it now". But i got more shopping to do for others before xmas so i guess that'll distract me.

Man now i gotta go buy another whistle, thanks a bunch

i had a feeling that it was a kerry F, but it doesn't quite sound like the clips on the web. Plus if you look at the hole spacing it looks different than the photos on the kerry site for his F (based on the video clips of his F). So i'm sure i'm probably wrong, but i think it might be something diff...

Ok guys here's a test. This is a clip of McGoldrick playing a whistle, but what type of whistle is it? I think it sounds amazing, but then anything he plays tends to do so. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LBfRjZc ... ed&search=
let me know what you guys think.

i normally start off thinking i'm only going to play one or two songs, but then the sound of the whistle makes me play more, and more, to the point where i've played almost all the songs i know really well at present. Then i start trying to learn something new because the old songs are getting borin...

OK OK OK i know that there is probably some post about this, but after searching for ten minutes i didn't find what i was looking for so i'm going to ask you guys. I'm thinking about getting an Overton Low F (christmas present for meself :) ) and i'm trying to figure out the difference between Colin...

well it's along the same idea of the physics of a whistle, you blow into the tube and the windway creates air turbulence, this sets up a standing wave inside the tube (a different one for each tone depending on how many holes are open or closed). The whistler is the same idea, only instead of a soun...
