Now quite in time for the holidays, I’ve finally finished another batch of whistles. Pics here and here
Left to right and bottom to top
Bocote with Delrin #38. This has a bigger windway than the others. Plays more like a Clarke; very nice mellow traditional sound. $40 sold
Boxwood with brass mouthpiece and artificial ivory rings #40. Plays more to my taste – moderately high backpressure. Very pure sweet sound, a little louder than the others, carries really well. $125
Boxwood with brass and ivory, #41. High backpressure, very pure sweet sound. F# and B holes are a little out of line. $75
Zebrawood with Delrin #42. Medium backpressure, pure but mellow traditional sound. F# hole is just a tad out of line, can be tuned flat, but not very sharp. $60
Zebrawood head dogwood body frankenwhistle with Delrin, #44. Pretty much like the previous whistle with the body of different wood. $40
I can send higher-resolution pics if anyone’s interested. Please email any inquires by clicking the button below.
One of these days I’ll get some sound samples uploaded. But then I’ve been saying that for a year.
