Help Identifying Low D Whistle

Post by mshakeshaft »

I was hoping that someone could help me identify the maker of my Low D whistle. It was bought about 15-20 years ago, from Macaris Music Shop in Denmark Street, London. It is made from Aluminium and not tunable. It has a great tone.

I did wonder if it was an Overton, but the head profile is not square.

Any information would be greatly received. Thanks
