On some tunes it's a Burke DBSBT. On other tunes it's an Overton high D. On others it's a Burke Composite C. On others...............

Well, having to choose just one, it would have to be my clarke original, a close second though is my Dixon Traditional.

It's a toss-up between my Sindt D and my Sindt Bb. I love all my Sindts but those two especially.

My Burke Composite high D.
It isn't quite as effortless to play as my Burke aluminum D, but the tone of the composite does it for me.

my Overton D. no doubt about it. although I would never part with almost any one of my whistles, that one 'completes me'

Burke Brass Viper Low D

Love some others, too...but if a flood were approaching, I'd surely grab these beauties!!!

Thank you, Misha, Gary, Bernard, and Michael. You've enhanced my enjoyment of music like no words can really say.

I have purchased a Burke BDSBT and a set of O'Brien's since the time I purchased a Dixon Trad D. I keep going back time and time again to the Dixon. I still play the others a lot, but the Dixon call to me.

My O'Riordan is priceless to me. Also my Busman in purpleheart.

Overton B and Gen Bb are at the top of my list and followed by Overton A and Overton F

It is without a doubt my Overton Alto F. It is just so soft and forgiving when playing, and it is just the right size for my hands to play quickly like a soprano yet still be a low whistle.
