I hate to do it, but I need to sell my Busman. It is one beautiful whistle and plays even better than what it looks! Mine is made of tulipwood and is in excellent condition. I’ll part with it for $180 plus shipping.
Paul’s craftsmanship in this whistle is very evident. I am very happy with this whistle and consider it my best whistle. I hate to part with it.
The tweeked Clarke is from the whistle shop and is in good condition. $18 plus shipping will take it.
He’ll have to wait-- People magazine is doing a 4 page profile in June, and NBC is considering a new reality show called “Who Wants to Marry a Whistlemaker”…
Having one of my whistles up for sale feels sorta like seeing one of my children up for sale on the auction block, but these things DO happen-- I’ve sold my share of whistles and other instruments to raise funds for one thing or another. Matter of fact, that’s how I met my wife Charlene: sold her a bass recorder on eBay…really!

Paul, maybe I could help you out in your Ebay endeavors? You know, if you’ve got any extra recorders lying around that you just haven’t gotten around to listing?

So you ended up getting the recorder right back? How ironic!

Yup-- now it proudly hangs in the archway between our living room and dining room. We continue to make beautiful music together in more ways than one…
Dale-- didn’t mean to imply that you were second to anyone!
This reminds me of something I was thinking of for a while: what do people here think of starting a letter writing campaign to People Magazine requesting that they do a little profile of Dale, and the whole whistle phenomenon? It sounds like something they might pick up on if enough people requested it ( if Dale is OK with the idea, natch)
