Renfaire and new whistle

I got back yesterday from a weekend camping trip with all of our renaissance faire volunteers. Great fun.

While I was there I realized I was pretty close to Lansing so I drove over to Elderly and ended up with two, count 'em, 2 new aquisitions.

First the Irish Flute Obsession CD. Full of great stuff.

Second, and most important, a new Thin Weasel. :smiley: It’s a great looking and sounding whistle. Fairly loud but not a lot of breath required. The upper octave needs a little attention to keep from going down to the first but not nearly as much as a Susato. It stays in tune through it’s range.
I just oiled the bore this morning since I don’t know how long it’s sat in the store. Tonight I’ll run a rag through to get out any excess oil and continue the breaking in process.

Wow! That’s great, Rick. I can’t wait to try it when you’re ready to relinquish it! In about a year?

Cara :laughing:

Oh, there you are.
Sure we can swap Abell for TW :laughing:

BTW how’s the Susato A holding up?
