I am selling seven of my tweaked/hybrid whistles (I need the money to buy a chromatic tuner to help me with my new experiments of making whistles in the keys of E, B and A using Generation/Walton fipples and brass tubing from a hobby shop). I am selling them at the cost it was to me to buy the whistles and fipples and no added cost for my labor.
All the whistles have a Walton Little Black tweaked (sticky tack added) fipple.
3 have Feadog barrels - $11.50 for each
1 with an O?Grady barrel- $12.50
1 with an old OAK (from the mid eighties when they were made in the USA) barrel- $13.50
2 with a black Acorn barrel-$10.50.
To fit the WLB fipple on the painted Acorn whistle I had to sand off the paint at the fipple end of the whistle (about ¾ of an inch of the barrel). I did not realize this at first and put the WLB on the whistle and only could move it on a little and could not tune it. I had to use pliers to get the fipple off so there is some scuff marks at the base of the fipple but the mouthpiece and blade are in perfect shape.
$3.50 for shipping to any one address (USA only)
A by-product of my hybrid whistles is that I have some extra fipples hanging around (like donut holes). I have 5 Oak/Acorn black fipple (two with sticky tack in them) and four green Feadog fipples. I will give them away to people who buy the whistles for free-first come first serve (since the cost for these fipples were already incurred in the price of the whistle-if we could only get Dunk?n Donuts to do the same). Just let me know what type and how many you want. I can add sticky tack to any of fipples if you want.
