I have a Walton’s D tweaked by this guy and it’s excellent.
Looks like a good whistle.
Did you make that conclusion from the ebay picture ![]()

I made a conclusion from the picture, the write up, ebay feedback comments, and I know people that have them. ![]()
I received these two whistles in the mail today. If anyone is interested (I don’t know the review status of this tweeker), just let me know and I can maybe post pics and sound clips.

I’m interested. I should receive the one I bought either today or tomorrow. But I’d love to hear how the others sound.

I would like to hear the sound clips.
Alright, it may take me a few days but I’ll work on it… anyone have an idea where I can find a host for a soundclip?
I’ll be glad to host your soundclip. Just email it to me.

Thank you, Dale. I’ll email you when I get a chance to record, hopefully sooner than later.
Well, I decided to kill two birds with one stone and recorded this weeks http://www.WhistleThis.com tune using the Irvine tweaked Waltons Mellow D. You can download the sound clip here:

These are the most mellow whistles I’ve yet come across; they have a very warm brass tone to them. They are quiet, very easy to play and well balanced.
If I can find the time I’ll post a clip of his tweaked Feadog C that came with.
They are sold as a set and the fipples are interchangable; putting the Feadog Fipple on the Waltons makes the infamous Mellow Dog and the Walton’s fipple sounds great on the Feadog as well.
cheers,
Johnny
Very nice music, and whistle review. Thank you Johnny.

Mine was in the mailbox when I got home from work last night. Man oh man, this is one fine whistle. I got the Bb version this time, and I’d say the beautiful tone is worthy of a Burke Bb. The only real difference is that this Irvine tweak makes the whistle a lot quieter than a Burke, but I like quiet whistles anyway, so that’s a plus for me. But these whistes (I also have the Walton’s version) have a gorgeous sound.
Yeah I’m lovin’ the Feadog C as well. They have such a warm soft sound like none I’ve ever heard before. His prices are extremely reasonable too.
I’ve never seen a Waltons or a Feadog in anything other than D and C. What make was the Bb you got? I’ve only seen his Walton Mellow D and Feadog C on ebay, I didn’t realise that he made them in other keys.

The Bb I got is a Generation. He’s selling another one now:
