The G has been located and is on its way…hot damn! 
Doesn’t Mr. Hardy have any?
Why?
I swear to Bob I thought about posting that exact same response twenty times. 
Why not?

Slan,

Yes, I have contacted Phil. He said that only about 50 of the Low G’s in brass and that It would be hard to find.
Now to answer why…Their are some of you that swear by Overton, Goldie, Alba, etc. and thats great because those are your preferences. I have had all of these makers in several keys and sold all of them. Not because they were bad whistles,but none compare in my simple opinion to the sound that is created by a Chieftain Brass whistle. By no means am I knocking any other maker of fine whistles, all I am saying is that I prefer Chieftains and am really wanting to find the Chieftain Brass Low G.
Cool answer to not-so-cool questions…
KD, did you ever get the ‘gold’ low D? (that was you a while back wasn’t it?) What do you think? My soprano D takes quite a bit of warming up before playing second octave stuff, I imagine the lows take for ever. Nothing like that heavy, solid feel though. I’ll bet those low whistles are regular truncheons!
I think you’ll find that “Gold” Chieftains are really brass. 
Father…I did get it and it is a top brass whistle…It is ready to go without having to be warmed.
That’s surprising! It must weigh about a pound! And it is odd that Phil calls them ‘gold’. I’m sure nobody thinks they are really made of gold, and they don’t even stay that color for long.
Hi Keith, Hi Father!
I also was able to find a Chieftain Gold Low D after you (Father) told me you saw one in a sale flyer from Lark In The Morning, thank you. It’s a great low D, with power and mellowness at the same time. You were right, Keith, I’m not sorry I bought it, even at the new price!
I also picked up a used Chietain Gold soprano D because you said you liked yours so much, Father. It is another great whistle, but I find I don’t play it much because I play mostly the low D’s. It also takes a little more breath control than a low D-less breath in the low notes, and needs to be pushed in the higher octave, like Chieftains and Overtons do. The fellow who had it before me said he used it in sessions where it worked quite well, but I’m not a session player.
If anyone is interested in the high D, let me know. Good luck on the G, Keith, sooner or later one will probably show up!
Green:
Glad you like your Chieftain Brass Low D. I have yet to find a whistle that plays a smoother quality sound than a Chieftain, especially the brass. In regards to the “G”…I’ll keep looking…
