Re: Pocketable Whistle Suggestions?

Update: It looks like Susatos only go up to high-F (no high-G), and a high-F Susato ends up being almost $80 with shipping, which is a bit steep.

Anyone have a used Susato high-F they want to sell? :)

Pocketable Whistle Suggestions?

Hi! I'm in need of a whistle that will fit into my pocket. Unfortunately, none of my high-D whistles, even with the heads removed from their bodies, will fit (some come close). The key of the whistle really doesn't matter much as I just want a whistle to take with me on occasions where I'm not takin...

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...
