Really happy with this whistle, but it is no longer tunable.
Egilford 27.06.2022
I received this whistle on Thursday, so l haven´t played a lot on it yet, but l am very happy with the rich sound in this whistle. Some say it takes a lot of air, and that is true in the 2nd octave, but in the 1st octave l find it very easy to play and get clean notes. When l go to the higher notes like high F and above it takes some air, and the notes are not so easy to play, but this is not necessarily the whistle´s problem. It could just as well be my skills that are not good enough. If it is my problem it should improve over time. All in all, l am very happy with this whistle. It is now being made in one piece, so it cannot be split or tuned like previous models. For me this is not a negative thing. Now l am awaiting my mezzo A. Looking forward to that and to see how that one will play. I like these new Busker whistles, because they are going back to basics with pure joy of playing without becoming too technical. So, l would buy this again.

Built like a tank

It has a distinct tone (not in a bad way), looks and feels sturdy.
It's also very loud.

Very Disappointed With This Whistle
Greadore 20.12.2022
I received this whistle and was very disappointed with it. It was not playable as it was impossible to play most of the notes in the second octave even when using a lot of air and the notes that I could reach had a “screechy” sound. I have a Kerry V5 Low D and am very happy with it so I was surprised at the poor quality of this whistle. Perhaps I received a “dud” but I had to return it and get my money back.

Gute Idee .. Umsetzung, na ja ....
WhisT 07.11.2020
OOOOk ... ich muss meine Bewertung zu dieser Whistle leider deutlich korrigieren. Nach dem in ich inzwischen über deutlich mehr Erfahrung im Umgang mit den Tin Whistles verfüge, muss ich meine anfängliche Begeisterung ziemlich relativieren.
Diese Whistle hat vor allem ein Problem mit dem Luftbedarf. Es irritiert massiv, dass eine High-D Whistle in der zweiten Oktave deutlich mehr Luft braucht, als meine Low-D Whistle ... das kann einfach nicht sein. Da entschädigt auch der durchsetzungsstarke Klang nicht.
Zudem ist die Stimmung der Whistle in sich nicht besonders gelungen. Da fehlt die Feinabstimmung, die man für diesen Preis erwarten dürfte.
Mein Fazit ist: Lieber 5 -10 billige kaufen und auf eine Gute dabei hoffen, als sich hier ärgern.

Pro:
- Durchsetzungsstarker, wenn auch nicht typischer Sound
- Top Verarbeitung, da wackelt nichts
- Stabiles, wertiges Material

Kontra:
- Extremer Luftverbrauch in der zweiten Oktave
- "durchwachsene" Stimmung - Töne passen nicht zu einander
