Wanted - B Natural whistle.

Whistle
1

Hi All,

I am after buying a B natural whistle, or trade, so if you’ve got one
sitting in your cupboard gathering dust, let me know.

I know only a few makers do this key, and some have stopped,
but If you have a chieftain gold B natural PM me.

thanks in advance

O’Brien whistles come in every key (at the moment between B and F, as far as I know). I have them all.

You can get a syn for a resonable price with a bnat tube
My next suggestion is a Humphrey. He is a little more local and has a 30 day return policy…not a bad price either

I think Michael Burke makes B as well.

Thanks, thats a few more to add to my list.

Has any one owned or used the syn whistles from Australia, one head
and a full set of high/mezzo bodies in most keys for very little money???

I have a set of Syn’s with a Bnat tube

The I.D. of the set is only .5 so it is not the opptimum size for a lower key but it works. Because of the smaller bore you have to blow softer on the low notes and it is rather quiet. The second octave is more favorable and easy to blow. I still like mine even though it is quiet.

I don’t have one but I know the Humphrey has a larger bore and is probably louder and requires more air. You can check the specs. on his website. His new journeyman whistles have a thicker tube. I have a D+C whistle and the workmanship and sound are top notch!

Burke makes the best B natural available.

Didn’t Phil make a B natural for a while? I bet one of those would be really nice. You ought to check it out.
