Firstly, the Dixon tunable DX-005 is a beautiful modest priced little whistle,and well worth the price even though it cost almost as much for posting as the whistle cost. I have several whistles now ,and even though I might be suffering from Whistle Aqusition Disorder (W.A.D.) I don't regret the purchase. It is easy to play and has a nice tone. Secondly, McNeela have always been reliable and answered any questions I had in a timely manner. I thank them for that. Steve Ball,. Australia.

I'm not impressed by this whistle. Aside from that that the product description has room for improvement (this whistle is from "polymere") where I was under the impression it is brass. The product descriptions says it weights "400.00 Grams" where it actually weights only 31 grams. To me it sounds really cheap. My starter whistle is a Clarke D and that sounds much fuller and clearer than the product I got here.

Hi André, Thank you for your review and your feedback and we're sorry the DX005 has not lived up to your expectations. A member of our Customer Service Team will be in touch with you to make this right for you.  The weight you see is for shipment categories but we have updated the product description to include more detail regarding the whistle.

Fast and safe delivery, even to Belgium. Beautiful tin Whistle with low air demand and good pitch in both octaves. Good and rounded sound, though probably bit low in volume for use on stage without amplifying,

A Beginner's Perspective. I only bought my first tin whistle 9 or 10 weeks ago, so this is my first 'better' instrument. I like it! It has a nicer tone than my first one and I can reach the second octave easier. I clicked on 4 stars because b in the first octave sounds a bit squeaky but that could be my fault as being so inexperienced. All in all I'm really happy with it and this 83 year old is actually learning to play a musical instrument. Good, eh?
