Gentleman, I have owned a Reviol Low D with the Low C tube for over a year. Got them from a chap in Australia. The black anodized is beautiful and makes holding and covering holes a delight. The sound is wonderful, with the Low C growling like an Overton, I love the backpressure and it is less than ...

I have enjoyed mine as well, and I have the low C body which is a stretch but just as fine. The air vibration of the bell note is so lovely. I go into empty rooms just to play it and hear the sound.

Dear Tucson, Having owned a Dixon Low D, and now a Reviol Low D, and having purchased a WhistleSmith Low F several months ago, my comment would have to be related to its breathy sound. Although I enjoy playing it from time to time and think it a very good value, it has the most breathy, windy sound ...

My already high estimation of the skill of whistlemaking is higher now knowing you struggle with these dynamics. Einstiens question has been answered in my estimation, yes, God had design limits suited to the fragility and the uniqueness of His creatures. Honored to hear from you on this site. Don i...
