Hi, does anyone know the name of the fast whistle piece in the middle of the Jethro Tull song, " The Whistler" ?

I don’t know if it is any other song, added to the piece. But it sure does outline the chords, doesn’t it? I do wish I had the guitar he’s using on it, though.

Yeah, John it does at that. Here’s what someone down below had to say about the guitars.
“Someone asked about Ian’s acoustic guitars - although he used to always play Martin Nylon Strung instruments, he now has guitars made by Manson; I’ll try to fish out a link. The Mansons are two brothers - one specialises in acoustic and the other electric (who makes Martin Barre’s guitars).”
I remember reading that he uses 3/4 size guitars to minimize feed back problems.

That’s a 3/4 size guitar. Follow this link to a story about some of Ian Anderson’s instruments:
Pretty sure it’s just a little nameless jig-let that Ian wrote.
