For Sale: Sindts, Burke, Reyburns and Books

[lizzyj]

Ok, moving time and need to clear some things out and get money for other purchases (like more flights to Ireland -- was just at a great craic-filled session at O'donghue's last night in Dublin). All of these prices are negotiable.

Reyburn high D, excellent condition, very nice tone, $90 new-- $50
Reyburn high D, slight nick in the botton, doesn't affect tone -- $45
Burke high D, narrow bore, brass, $170 new -- $100
Sindt B, a beautiful instrument, I just don't play that much in other keys, $100 new plus a wait time -- $100 [see note below - Moderator]
Sindt high D, slight dent in the E hole, doesn't affect tone, and John would probably be willing to fix it at a nominal charge without a long wait time, $90 new -- $75


Cathal McConnell Teaches Irish Pennywhistle book and CD -- $5
John Skelton's books, A Few Tunes, and A Few More Tunes -- $5
Grey Larsen, The Essential Guide to Irish Flute and Tin Whistle, one CD is missing -- $10
Grey Larsen, The Essential Tin Whistle Toolbox, with CD -- $5

Bump.

That's a frighteningly good price on the high D Reyburn(s), the whistle that cured me of WHOA.

Nope, WHOA can't be cured your WHOA is only in a dormant state...

You're right, I know, I know.

There are these (the subject of an earlier thread) http://www.harjedalspipan.se/index01.asp. And Paul Busman, right around the corner...

Reyburn for $50 SOLD
Cathal book SOLD
other Reyburn is pending

Yes, it's a good price for the Reyburns. I think they're underrated and don't go as easily as a Burke or Sindt, but Reyburn makes very good whistles.

In a different thread

the OP notes that the "Sindt B" offered above is really a Sindt C.

What is the out side diameter of the tone tube on the Sindt C?

What is the out side diameter of the tone tube on the Sindt C?

If it's like mine, it should be 9/16 inch.

So a Walton's Mellow D tube would fit in the Sindt head?

I think so. My Freeman Mellow Dog D tube fits, but would need to be sanded down just a bit to slide easily into the Sindt C head. Along the lines of Bloomfield's Sindt hybrid tweak:

Apparently, cheap whiskey also helps, but I can't vouch for that.

Thanks for the whistle info. I assume cheap whiskey would be the least amount of cost. But where would the cut off price be before it is expensive whiskey?
