If you have a whistle website, could you please send it to me in a reply. As you have probably already read I am looking to buy a soprano D whistle. I’ve looked all over the internet, but the best place so far has been chiff and fipple. Good job Dale, thanks for all of your help listed on your website.

I must have had 5 or 6 e-mails from you Kevin (and replied in great detail to all of them), asking for information on a range of whistles and whistle-types. So, I presume that you did find at least one site!
Take care

Thanks for all of your responces. I’m just trying to get all the information I can about whistles. I really enjoyed reading all of your replies. I think I will probably have to buy a new cheap whistle, just to get the hang of it. Thanks again

Of course, I rejected everybody’s advice and got a whole stack of Generations! I figure if they’re good enough for the Chieftains, they’re good enough for me. One exception is that my D whistle is a Clarke Sweetone. I have no problem with any of them. Luck o’ the Irish, I guess!
For some reason I seem to do a lot less research before I spend $9 than you do, Kevin. I guess me and my money are easily parted, and you know what that makes me. 
Hey Bloomfield its not $9, its upwards of $200. I’m really new at the whistle, and there’s nobody else who will tell me about them near where I live. So I’m kind of at a disadvantage. Just trying to get information, but thanks for all your help.

Well, maybe you shouldn’t start with a Copeland. 
My recommendation is that you get a Clarke Sweetone ($5.00) and maybe also a Feadog or Walton or Oak. Both in D.
Don’t buy anything else, just sit infront of the computer and go through the whistle tutorials. There is one here, there are lots others listed in the links section. After a short while, tackle Brother Steve’s. There is really no need to buy a book and there are lots of sound examples on the tutorial pages. You can get all the IrTrad tunes you need at JC’s tunefinder.
I don’t see how you get the $200 figure. Even if you want to learn to play the Low D, you can get a good one (Kerry) for $65, and the Susato is about that much, too, I think. But even if you are looking to learn the Low D, start with a high D and switch after a while.
Good luck, have fun!
