You Buy Directly from my custom whistle shop in northern Maine. This is a great buy for a Handmade Custom whistle and you get fast shipping too! When folks in Maine decide that something is exceptional, they generally say "It's Wicked Good" This Low F is one Wicked Good Whistle ! This is the newest addition to my line of whistles. I promised a Low F this past year and it is finally here! Not only is it a really nice whistle that matches the Low A and Low G WhistleSmith instruments, but it is also the same price! Unheard of for a Low F whistle with all these special features! If you play your whistle outdoors then the Low F is for you! You can play this whistle in a gale force wind and it will not miss a note. The Low F will stay in tune in cold weather and the mouthpiece can be easily rotated to the bottom of whistle for playing in the wind. This is a great whistle to take camping, hiking or playing around the fire. I have played this whistle from Northern Maine to Florida and everywhere in between this year and people have been impressed with the sound of the Low F everywhere I’ve gone. I have improved the Straight Shot mouthpiece in shape and it feels silky smooth against your lip. The mouthpiece has a bevel on the top to fit your lip when the whistle is played in a variety of positions. The tuning slide is made of copper for strength and slides efficiently without sticking. There are no rubber O rings to break and lubricating the slide is optional. The tuning slide clip is slotted on the back so you can see the amount of adjustment in the slide when tuning to another whistle. It also strengthens the slide and keeps the whistle aligned when rotating the mouthpiece to the down position. If you do not wish to use the tuning slide clip, it is easily removed. Whistle is nineteen inches long and made for small hands fingering (ladies small glove size), Folks with large hands will find the fingering distances to be extra comfortable and uncrowded between fingers. The finger holes on this whistle are offset on the bottom hole and make playing the instrument very comfortable. You must specify if you want a right or left handed whistle.The tone body has been relief bored on the foot to give the bottom notes on the lower octave louder volume and better balance to the instrument. The Low F lets you play in the Keys of F and Bb and Gm without having to learn any tricky cross fingering. This is a very handy whistle to add to your collection. Whistle comes apart for easy cleaning at the slide and breaks down into two pieces for travel. Straight Shot mouthpiece is made of Bristol white polymer and has a grey plastic plug from IMG plastics. The mouthpiece contains no wood or metal and the top slides completely off for cleaning and can be adjusted to best playing position on the top and bottom octaves. The Low F has a rich, full sound you'll enjoy, with balanced high and low octaves. There is plenty of volume for any type of playing. Whistle is white with silver striiping and comes with an 11" x 17" color coded fingering chart and whistle care and playing tips sheet. Whistles are right handed because of offset fingering on right hand. If you require a left handed whistle, email us at the end of the auction or Buy It Now!
