Hello all
In the spirit of mad Christmas commercialism (and in the spirit of paying for a new half set of uilleann pipes I just bought) I have decided to thin out my collection a bit, and to give you guys first crack at the lot before hitting Ebay.
Tully whistle, high D - $150 (avoid the year’s wait, buy your sweetie a sterling silver whistle). This is an excellent whistle, but for some reason just doesn’t get much use in my house. Comes with bag.
Shaw A whistle - $30.
Dave Shaw is a great guy; he made my Northumbrian smallpipes and I recommend his work. I happen to prefer purer sounding whistles, but this one is very trad.
NON-WHISTLE ITEMS
Deering Goodtime open-back banjo - $200
I bought this to learn clawhammer banjo on, and it’s a great instrument- the best of the cheap banjos. I later found a Ramsey at a great price, so don’t need this anymore. Comes with gig bag.
Rover open-back banjo -$100. I bought this, well, I’m not sure why. It was a moment of weakness on Ebay. It’s really not a bad banjo, decent tone, and at a great price. If you’ve wanted to learn clawhammer, but cheap, this is for you. Comes with gig bag.
Thanks for reading, and let me know if anything catches your fancy.
Happy holidays
