Weston Whistles - Cocobolo wood high D tunable and Aluminum high D non-tunable (6-21-2019)

Very nice! How do you like the aluminium one? Because it is definitely on my wish list.

More old Generation stuff:




Note how the most recent F (late 1940s) is slightly longer than the previous ones

a blow up of part of the above, labels changing over time (resisting punning on 'generations' there)

some nice whistles here!

Whistle WHOAD is still happening and I can't explain it. Today:



Top whistle and extra tube is Journeyman III Session High D and Stealth III session High D
Bottom whistle is Stealth III Trad High D in Silver (not shiny nickel... silver tube)

I have a single whistle that I treasure. I try to play it every day ….. each time I do it makes me smile

Handmade in copper.

That is a beautiful whistle. Does the maker have a homepage?

Thanks. I’m afraid that I made just the one for myself. It went through a number of manifestations before I got the balance and tuning right though!
If you want info on how it’s built then please ask .... no problem. It’s pretty straightforward.
Currently working on a low D.

Wow, I was not aware you made it yourself. Awesome!

Rather than photos of my collection, here's a video of me playing everything in my whistle roll:
