Chieftain "Golds" have been SOLD

Whistle

Hello everyone!


Below is a picture of my collection of Chieftain “Golds.” The collection includes: High D, High C, B Flat, Mezzo A, Low G, Low F, and a Low D.

The custom black walnut case was made for me by Larkwoodworks in Nova Scotia. It is un-finished (at this time) and lined with red felt. I was reading a thread by Phil Hardy which was posted on Tue Jan 10th where he said " I do recommend that if you see one of any key up for sale anywhere that you grab it." Well, this is your chance to do just that. I also have an additional Chieftain “Gold” High D to sell separately. I am considering selling this collection as I am now confining my playing to other instruments. These whistles were difficult to find, especially the Low G. I believe that there were not many of the Low G’s made. If any member of the Chiff and Fipple family is interested in this collection, please e-mail me. Additional pictures of the case can be e-mailed to you on request. I had considered putting this collection on Ebay but decided to offer it to the members of Chiff and Fipple first.

You will notice that there is a compartment on the left side of the case. I asked Larkwoodworks to utilize this unused space in the case for storing cleaning cloths or other small items. The asking price for the collection is $1600. The Chieftain “Gold” High D which I am selling separately is $175. The whistles are all in very good condition and play beautifully. I look forward to hearing from you.

I will leave this offer open to the members of Chiff and Fipple for 1 week before I list it on Ebay.

Shipping and insurance would be additional.

Thank you for looking.

HI Jim,

The picture wants me to instal .net passport account. I make it a point to reverse and negate anything that the internet tries to impose on my machine. So I’ll just rely on your descriptions - which are ample :slight_smile:

Not a criticism - just observation.

Sometimes a word can tell a thousand pictures :slight_smile:

may I humbly suggest that the line,

“sometimes a word can tell a thousand pictures”

should, in this case, read;

sometimes a word can tell a thousand pixels?


(duckin’ & runnin’)

Let me just vouch for James. I have bought several whistles from him in the past. He is very quick to send them, and all of them have been EXTREMELY well kept. Every single one I bought were just like new. Snatch these up, while you can!

I would second that.

For free, easy to use, picture hosting that allows hot-linking so you can put your pics on forums…

For this forum you need to use the “url code” of the pic, not the “img code”.
