Hi everyone,
I'm looking for some help in picking out a new whistle. I've played a standard keyed flute for years, and have decided that I want to try something a little different, but don't really have any idea where to start - there's just way too much information out there! I love Irish music, and from what I gather, I will likely want a D whistle, but I'm not sure if I should go with metal, wood, bamboo, plastic, metal with a plastic mouthpiece, etc. I suppose the most important thing other than quality/tone is price, since I have a budget of ~$50. Thanks in advance!
