Re: D/C European Boxwood Whistle Set, made by David Boisvert

Thanks, I had one offer but decided to sell it on Ebay. I recently found all the information about this whistle when I bought it some years ago. And sadly, never used it. Hopefully it will sell on Ebay for $650 plus.

Re: FS. Glenn Schultz low F whistle

I had a low A native flute in bloodwood. And the color is different than this whistle, much redder. The flash makes it redder than what it really is. And my friend has a flute made from Sissoo wood and it matches it exactly.

Re: FS. Glenn Schultz low F whistle

I just had a brain storm, if anyone is seriously interested in the whistle, give me your email and I'll email the picture to you. That's the best I can do for now.

Re: FS. Glenn Schultz low F whistle

Hi All, I'm still trying to put a photo with my ad. I don't know why it has to be so difficult. I forgot to mention in my original ad, I will pay for shipping and insurance for the value of the whistle. I hope to get a photo up by Christmas. :>)

Re: FS. Glenn Schultz low F whistle

I sent a picture of the whistle to a wood company that sells mostly hardwoods and they said the wood is Sissoo. Sissoo is a type of rosewood. I'm sure Cocobolo makes for a nice whistle also. It's one of the woods used a lot by Oz Whistles and their high D's sell for $510. I dont' think Glenn made ma...

Re: FS. Glenn Schultz low F whistle

Thanks for your response. I don't think this wood is related to redwood. This wood looks more to be in the Delbergia family which is rosewood. It doesn't look like any cocobolo that I have and I have about 100 lbs. I was thinking it could be Kingwood or Sissoo. Anyways, it's a beautiful whistle with...

Re: Can anyone tell me when my whistle was made?

I also have the same whistle and it looks like it's made from Rosewood. And on the back it says M 671. And I always keep it together to protect the red yarn. It's a strong playing whistle especially in the second octave.

Re: New teak case for MK low D photos

I think the box would be a good idea if you want to store your whistles in your home or if you're going traveling with one or two whistles. But if you're going to play in a gig and are carrying several whistles, boxes would be too impractical. I love my well made ballistic nylon cases Colin Goldie d...

Re: Computer Program to Print Out Western Notation

The piece on You Tube is called Highland Heather by Jan Seiden. And it starts at 3:25. I have the same double E flute but I'm sure it could be played on a low and high D whistle.
