I just found out by accident that a Feadog mouthpiece will slip perfectly down into the barrel of a Meg and will make a nice tight seal. It looks almost like it was made to fit. I swear I think it plays even better than either the Feadog or the Meg! LOL! …LOOKS GREAT TOO!
I also just found out by accident that a Feadog mouthpiece will slip PERFECTLY into the bore of 1/2" SCH. 40 PVC pipe. I just tested it with a homemade barrel I had right here and though it was hopeless out of tune it made a clear and rich tone. I think I’ll make a barrel that’s in tune with that Feadog mouthpiece just for fun and see what it sounds like.
The possibilities seem endless! Hah hah hah!! I just found out that my Meg mouthpiece fits perfectly into the bore of a 3/4" copper pipe. It even slides up and down somewhat so would end up being tunable. I see a copper low D whistle in my immediate future outfitted with a Meg mouthpiece.
It sounds good with a D body, too! Only quite a bit louder. I had to tweak it a bit to get it to play the B-flat well. The A is a little harder. I need to go buy a few so I can ruin one or two and not be sad…
