Well, I can’t seem to sell it so I am going to have some fun and give it away!! I am going to conduct my own little private auction which begins today and will end promptly this Sunday at 6pm EST. This is what is offered in total:
as mentioned above…a Susato Etched Kildare Soprano D whistle. Cream colored with Celtic designs on the body of the whistle. Comes with a detachable thumb rest. A nice whistle that I just don’t use. Like all Susatos it is loud which is why I don’t use it…I like soft. But…it has a nice round pleasing tone…a bit chiffy in the 2nd octave. Great whistle if you like Susatos. Orig. cost…$34
2)a brown faux leather pouch for the above whistle. Orig cost…$6
A fairly decent Feadog in soprano D. This is not a bad whistle..with some tweaking it could be a GREAT whistle. Again..just don’t play it. Orig. cost $5.00
Soooo…if you want to play, email me your name and address at ANDREAZ54@AOL.COM. I will write all names on slips of paper and exactly at 6pm on THIS Sunday I will put them all in a bucket and pick one. Goodies will be shipped Priority Mail on Monday to the lucky winner. Now I ask you…does it get any sweeter than this??? C’mon, lets have some fun!!! Oh yeah…I will indeed post the lucky winner on the board so the rest of you can knash your teeth as we all do when we don’t win. !!!
Hi Andrea,
I just dropped you an email, not that I ever actually win these things, but I like the idea of a free raffle. Maybe I’ll have to raffle off some stuff too
Thanks
Tell you what, Andrea. If you send the 2 whistles to me I’ll tweak the Susato and sent it back to you, and keep the other for my efforts. I think you’ll be surprised by the results. The Susato will still be loud, but it will gain a much improved tone. You may consider it too late for this, but I don’t think too many people give you-know-what either way, even those who have entered the raffle.

Yeah, that’s why Lunasa plays them. And they sound fantastic when they do. I’m putting my name in the raffle (no doubt I’ll sound like Lunasa if I win).
Andrea,
I really like this idea! It’s fun! With the lousy milk prices we are getting right now I am not buying anymore whistles for a while so a free one would be great!
Hey!! By Sunday my bucket may overflow!! Just a note to let everyone who has entered so far…I have sent you emails to confirm and you are in the bucket! (thats a GOOD thing!)
Yes “other Andrea” that would be too bizarre wouldn’t it!!! Pleased to meetcha!
