Re: Anyone tried a whistle from PA-Music?

Thanks for the replies! :)

I got a Swayne high-D in Boxwood recently. Very nice whistle with a unique voice. The high-B takes quite a bit of oomph to sound, but the lower octave is super strong, so I think it's a good trade-off.

Anyone tried a whistle from PA-Music?

Hi. I tried searching for old posts on this but it kept telling me that "music" was ignored because it's too common of a word. I'm wondering if anyone's tried a wooden whistle from PA-Music? PA = Peter Aschenbrenner http://www.pa-music.com/en/instrument-maker/instrument/irish-whistles/deta...

Two Whistles For Sale (Humphrey and a Mystery Whistle) (SOLD)

SOLD - Thanks! One is an early Gary Humphrey high-D whistle. It's pre-Stealth so still has a brass pin in the head. It's a "trad" (narrow) bore with a Delrin head and brass body. It's a fairly quiet, low-air whistle, at least compared to the "Session" Humphrey I currently play. ...

I have a brand new LIR Whistle in High-D for sale. I just got it and it's barely been played...just for a few minutes to check it out and see if I liked it.
