So whats the diffrance between a Bloomfield and a walden, I have a stefpat and it has a problem with the second octave
should I get rid of it and get a weekender, or maybe a low downZubivka.![]()
The Dale is way cool but I think the rich is abit suspect.
So cool! I just noticed youâre the Alba person. Iâve got a whistle coming from you. Canât wait! Not to mention youâre a pinky user, which makes me feel better about my inseparable middle and ring fingers.
The Bloomfield is a pure drop whistle. That Walden is, I daresay, recorder-y.
The Weekender is the preferred whistle of U.S. troops overseas, and only a Frooonchman would play a Zube Tube.
Although all generally have a fine tone, there is an occasional tendency to squawk and require a lot of air.
Et tu, jim_mc?
Well, the Dale is perfect for playing âHappy Birthday Mr. Presidentâ ![]()
Yes I agree, but is it the Bloom Buster that has the most back pressure,
and has the clogging problem on the weekender been fixed ![]()
Donât sayâyou might end up blowing a Zoobraphoon before you knowâŚ
For the time being, Zoobâs much into world moosic. Letâs see:
Low C â Scottish. Big bore but big fun.
Low D â Breton
Low Eb â English
Low F â Australian. Native American, too. My indigenous tone?
Low G â Breton. This makes two so far. Hmm, does this make me chauvinistic?
Bb â on its way from America.
C â Japanese sorta peppermill, plastic, with lotsa extra holes. Came with a nice plastic case and soft cleaning brush, that sold it. One ⏠at a garage sale. Would I spend more on high C? Call it my Xen-on paradox.
D â Scottish, English, English though 'merkin tweaked. Hmm, two more; with the (modest) Triumph tee-bird I guess itâs at least three evidences for being, what? Knnnigggetophile? Anglophiliac?
Iâve heard that TelegramSam is pretty squawky if handled incorrectly⌠![]()
Oâh I heard the telysam was squawky when just handled ![]()
So which whistler would you recomend for a beginer
Donât know how to recommend for a beginner, Stacy, but I hear that the Alba has a distinctive Scottish burr to it.
common sight up yonder in the Highlands? Girls wiggling around in bikinis? Bit chilly last time I was there. Didnât bring one.
