Nice. Price 70 lbs. Key?
Low D
BTW That’s £70.
70lbs is just too heavy to lift and play with ease.
Looks like the £70 price is an intro that will go up to £129.
sorry about that. 1.5 times 70 for us or whatever the exchange is.
at this moment that is $111.8740. That is not bad really. How much you think to the USA? And, the wait list.
looks like 85 gbp to usa where i live that is 135.85. the wait? the product?
1 GBP = 1.59896 USD so $100.927
got any other nits ya need picked?
Too funny. I wonder why the lower price. An intro price to go to 129 GBP. I am considering this one. Any opinions?
Gaaah, WhOA kicking in. Cannot resist!
I really wanted the graphite one though. Seems like theyre out of stock already 
I’m confused. Is the Kelpie basically a non-tunable version of the MK low D I already have or am I missing something?
Who knows? There is this bit in the description of the Kelpie.
Playability balanced towards beginners and intermediate players – making the the instrument more ‘accessible
What ever that may mean. Looks like a nice offering. It is certainly a good price for a well made low D as things go these days. So who’s got one of these to share their thoughts with us?

I’ve been wondering, too. Could it be…
Let’s take a continuum A<------------------->B
- Approaching “B” we have whistles that do whatever you tell (or rather, blow) them to do. Advanced players will be able to express wonderful nuances with such whistles, but beginners will surely find all their shortcomings made patent (rather loudly, probably).
- Approaching “A” we have whistles that have more a tendency to do their own thing, no matter what. Beginner players will benefit from the guiding tracks and probably will obtain more consistent results, while more advanced players are likely to feel somewhat constrained.
So, could it be that the “Playability balanced towards beginners” means a leftward shift in such continuum? But, more importantly 
, Please, please, please: what is the name for such continuum, and the proper terms for “A” and “B”? My brain is boiling…
Well that was short lived. looks like they are gone. 5 intro at 70 now 129. sounds like amazon and the kindle on black friday.
oh well.
fess up folks. Who got the bargains?
Ahhh… That’ be me. 
Looks like I got the last one (for now anyway). I’ll have to see how different it is to the MK I already have. I’ll let ya know.
I have to say that I’m a bit disappointed it’s another low D. Considering the hype and the lack of forthcoming info following the hype, I was hoping it would be another key, possibly another octave… another anything. Frankly, I would not consider the original design to be “less accessible” to a beginner in any way, other than price.
But the difference in price is significant, which I suspect will result in MK whistles getting in the hands of more people. And with the quality of MK whistles, that is a good thing.
Agreed. I was really hoping for a low G or low A.
The upper register is a bit of a blow for me but that’s the only real difficulty I have worth mentioning.
Well, I just looked and webpage says 100 pounds that is around $162.00 USD black only at this time. If I’m wrong somebody tell me.

Looks about right as it sits right now. I’d have considered a graphite model at £70, but for £100 I’m gonna pass. It would have been nice to have in the kayak this summer though.
Can’t tune it and for 100 pounds I’ll stay with my Dixon which I can tune…too bad!
