Clarke700555 Pennywhistle D-tuning Beginner-Set with textbook and CD, 700442

This very fine whistle arrived very well packaged and on time 2 days ago. I took up the Irish whistle 4 weeks ago and started with the basic brass type which was inexpensive and squawky in sound and it was unbearable for those listening. I kept at it and bought a Clarke Sweetone D whistle and the difference in tone was instantaneous. It's softer in sound and when you go to the next octave it behaves better than the brass whistle I started out with. I learned a few Irish and Scottish tunes and and people were now saying how much better I sounded. This improved my confidence and after seeing a video on YouTube about this Original Clarke Irish Whistle, I thought I'd purchase one. And am I glad I did. I'm now up in the higher octave and getting the notes right. It is a quieter whistle than the Clarke D but that's part of its charm. I switch between whistles for different volumes and tone. And, I even now find myself playing the brass whistle again now that I have improved my fingering and seem to have gained more control overall.Make this your first whistle and fly.....!!!

Crisp the best class A .great for opening musical ear especially if you play guitar etc. Has a beautiful bass sound to her. She is the only whistle i love to play. The penny whistles has a haunting sound to her if u play. I dont play her for trad i play her for for all tyes of music in the charts. When i play the penny whistle i feeel@ 1 with her sound. Its the best. 1 out of 10 ? I give her a 10😘

seems to be good sound ....but be aware there is a ridge at the back all the way where the tin was bend and is annoying when singing...tbe copper made ones from a single tube do not have this ridge

I have bought a couple of tin whistles, and by far, this is my favourite. Although requiring more effort to blow, the quality of sound it produces is superb. I like the airy mellow flute-like sound it gives. I assume it would be good for recording by itself. When used together with other instruments, the volume could be drowned out by others.

Easy to use. Easy to bend notes .... What's not to like ?! It's great highly recommend.

Nice sounding little whistle,I'm not expert as I'm learning to play it

Excellent. By far the best choice for us - my 2 year old grandson loved the sound of it, even though it didn't look like a pretty childs toy. It is elegant, as well as tuneful

Very pleased with my purchase - great quality and speedy delivery.
