Has anyone picked one of these up yet?

'bout halfway down the page.

Whoa!! Feadog Pro? Hmmmm… another wave of WhOA coming…

Good catch, Turkeyman. Hopefully they’ll be available in the US soon, then.

WHOA is me - I just ordered one!! :smiley:
The current thread on Feadogs has caused me to get mine out of the drawer and re-evaluate them.
Also checking the Shanna quay site reminded me of the whistles that I’ve already purchased from Steve- Doolins(1 & 2 piece),Clare 2 piece and Oak.Of course, these will all have to be played again in the name of whistle research.
The Feadog Pro’s double plated nickel body does put me in mind of the Oak.
I’ll report back when it arrives.

It’ll be interesting to see how you like it, Kevin.

Sounds like an oak. Double nickel plating is something they’ve been doing for years as I iunderstand it. Same with the back top. :blush:

I also ordered one yesterday. I’m not sure how long it will take to get here, but I’ll let you know.

Bob

Interesting. The price has gone up since I ordered yesterday!

Now they need to come out with a Bb feadog.

since Dale has their ear, maybe he can take it up with the 'Dógfather :sunglasses:

They’re run by a Dogfather?
Don’t tell me the Irish Mafia controls whistle production.

Whoa. :boggle:

I’ve got one. It has the same mouthpiece as Mk III…or at least I sure can’t see a difference. Double-plated, as already noted. I don’t think it plays or sounds different from the regular Feadogs.

Maybe I shouldn’t waste my money then.

I came to the same conclusions. In my review, I barely note that the Pro is there, because the very marginal differences in play could be chalked up to whistle variation that happens from whistle to whistle in any process.

Hmm :roll:
I’ll make my own mind up when the ‘Pro’ arrives.

I’ve also got one on the way. Let’s compare nores (no pun intended). :roll:

There’s a pun in comparing nores? :smiley:

I have a Pro Feadog already, have had it for a week. Great whistle like it a lot. Will try to get a review and perhaps a clip up soon.

Just got my Pro - seems nice for the price. Tried to compare it to my Improved. The Improved has a slightly longer tube and seems purer in the upper octave (initial observation, not value judgment).
