I've had a Kerry (non-pro), Burke Al and Cook.....the Kerry was my first and my fave.
I don't know what possessed me, but a local performer was entranced by the low D, and as it came to me as a random act of kindness (Jeroen I still owe ya a pint/pour of your favorite libation for that!) I passed it on to her, as I had by that time acquired the other two whistles.
I've never regretted the random act of kindness, but I have really honestly missed that whistle ever since.
Rumor has it another Kerry may make its way into my quiver thoug. . .

I don't see my favourite: the Albopelant (Pro) in African blackwood.
So I hade to vote "others".
Seriously, I can't make up my mind between the blues voice of the Alba, the brassband overtones of the Copeland, the ease, expression of the Kerry Pro (the only really "trad" sounding, but I foolllishllly sold to a Welllsh lllama ) and finally the sax/clarinet deep booming low end, reedy top, of the Yvon Le Coant in grenadilla. This last one would be my absolute favourite if it didn't call for a couple extra, and non-smoker's, lungs...

- Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.
Well, since I only have the one I have to vote for the Overton at this point. I am itching to try out some of the others though. Considering the recent mind boggling offer of serpant I just may get my wish!

- Tell us something.: Just updating my profile after 16+ years of C&F membership. Sold most of my flutes, play the ones I still own and occasionally still enjoy coming here and read about flute related subjects.

Hi, Tyghress. No debt on your part. Great to hear the evolving story of this low whistle.Tyghress wrote:...(Jeroen I still owe ya a pint/pour of your favorite libation for that!) ...
I had to look up the word libation would be very cool if we ever got a chance to meet over a pint (I'll have a Kilkenny)
On topic: voted Overton, they're awesome beats. Having finally played a (Jens') Copeland Low D, I better understand the 2 fanatic fanclubs of the 2. The thing is, you need both
