Copeland low D: outstanding!

Just bought a Copeland low D from someone on the board, and am having a ball with it. It plays both registers easily, with an especially rich and almost reedy low register. The only trouble is the high-high D note, but that is a tricky note anyway, and not often needed.
I showed my new toy to a friend (flute and whistle player, and maker of simply outstanding Native American flutes) and he is majorly jealous :stuck_out_tongue:
If anyone here has another used Copeland low D that they would like to sell, you might want to drop a line to Eric Marczak : epm03@hotmail.com Be sure to put something about a Copeland low D in the subject line so he doesn’t trash your mail as SPAM, and tell him I sent you.
You might want to consider a trade for one of his flutes as payment… I have a double barrel NA flute with the “chanter” tuned diatonically as a whistle which is outrageous.

Thom Larson from thewhistleshop.com let me play his Copeland sterling silver low D once. Man! :boggle:

Paul, stop wasting your hard-earned money on verdigris-prone competitors.

Make your own conical, resonant, wooden low D.

I volunteer to help you testing the prototype* :smiley:

  • Esp. since there’s strictly no news about that bear I told shouldn’t be hastily skinned, remember? :imp:

These have always been the
best low Ds, for me, anyhow.

Nothing short of death could make me part with mine. It is an outstanding whistle.

My favourite low D ..and I keep on telling people how much I love Overtons so that’s really saying something.

Now Paul, you expect to find two of those going secondhand in a couple of weeks? Well, you never know.

I sold mine a few years for a fundraiser at my daughter’s school. I still have my Copeland Low F. But I do miss the big boy.

Mine’s for keeps too. Even my daughter’s flute teacher rates it :slight_smile: .
