To separate or not!

Post by Matthewlawson3 »

Hi everyone! Is it better to keep the Abell D whistle together or separate the mouthpiece and bore when storing in a case or whistle row?

Thanks!

Keep it together unless possibly if you are interchanging bodies. Note that Chris Abell lets you have additional bodies (C, Db or Eb) for that head at $150 each.

There are holster-style cases that fit separated whistle head/body. They look similar to this:
