Re: Dixon Tapered Bore Low D Gateway To A 'Better' Instrument?
I think I should add I have no issue at all with Dixon whistles, the tapered Low D is a VERY nice instrument (if I was forced to play Low D, this would be the one I'd go for) and I myself own a Trad High C and an alloy body/plastic head Low G, which are both excellent.

Bb Susato Oriole Head On Generation Body.
