Well, I had heard rumours. So now I no longer have a full set. Sob
I want one.
d…r…o…o…l
:roll:
Hmm–there are in fact several tones added to the list since I last looked: G, B, E…
As many people know, my favorite whistle is an Abell d, but I was in his shop and I tried the Low G and I have to tell you that it totally lacked focus. I was disappointed and wouldn’t want one.
My favorite whistle in the world is the
Copeland low G.
Ditto, Jim.

Why?

The Copeland low G has a very beautiful sound, it has
good volume, I’ve made a great deal of money
playing it on the street. Some keys shine or sing
with a particular whistlesmith’s design,
and I think G really works with
Copelands.
I like Abells and they are too soft for my work.
They’re a bit like classical instruments, to me,
which is fine, but I need something both
rough and beautiful in G–I’m playing with
people who are often in the key of C. Best
Is that “drewl” or “drool”… or both?
Guess I have to start practising/study on my English a little more

Perfectly said by Jim. The resonance in my Copeland G does seem to be the best of the line and achieves the best octave balance, with an easy transition to the upper octave that is less finnicky than some others. When I want pure joy in a lower whistle that is easy to play, I reach for the Copeland G.

Peter, “drool” is correct spelling. The other could be a bending of the traditional spelling in order to be familiar or cute. It seems similar to a couple of other word-bends such as “fat” to “phat”, the second of which means nice or attractive or cool, and “cool” to “kewl” just to be different and cute.
Ah, everyday you learn something new.. thanks Jessie!
