I ran across this a few days ago, and thought it might be of interest to some of you.

Great photos Hiro... I never clicked the WWW button on any of your posts, and found your photos with a Google search. :oops:
I should have known that a fellow C&F member was responsible! :wink:

Yep, I stumbled upon that a while back too... Very cool. By the way, is Mr. Sindt machining his mouthpieces a bit different nowadays? We just got a Sindt C in with a different looking mouthpiece. Appears to be just for cosmetic purposes but very cool... If nobody else does, I'll post a pic in the next day or two.

Azalin and MurphyStout are discussing Murphy's whistle:

Az: Is that an high end whistle?

Murph: Yes, it's a Sindt.

Az: You mean it isn't, no?

Murph: Eh?? I said, yes, it's a Sindt.

Az: You mean, it isn't, no?

etcetera until fisticuffs.

I'd really like to see a pic of your Sindt C... I can't imagine how John could improve on his head design.

I'm glad I saw that photo of you playing the offset hole Sindt/Reyburn combo whistle, Hiro. The photo you posted earlier of the Reyburn tube had me confused as to how you would play it.

Fantastic photos, by the way. What kind of camera are you using?

Hi,Jim.
My off set arrangement is perfect and I like it steadily.
Now I can get very relaxing position to do anything.
Maximum results with minimum movements.
But I have to abandon the former fingering technique I learned(that's among the prices I expected,so no problem) and I am not still sure whether I should have chosen the melodic minor scale. I need much more experiences to judge myself about this.

Check the url below about my camera.

And Raindog,you said it! I would like to see the new Sindt C too. :o
