The weather here is abysmal but the Whistle is like a ray of sunshine. An instrument of great beauty and tone. Intonation is excellent. Perfect note production. There is no faulting it.

Everything advertised and more! The quality of this instrument is great. The reliable playability was a surprise since it is so affordable. The attentive service of this company is comforting. I am in a different country and felt like the shop was down the road. Thank you.

Wonderful! Would recommend... Has a lovely, crisp sound. Arrived in great condition in the U.S. As a woodwind player, this instrument is tremendous fun to play!

Prior to buying this flute I played a flute that could not reach the high notes. This flute can. This is a good entry level flute. Thank you, Jack

We received the whistles today, 3/20/23, after a 2 week wait. It would have been nice to have at the very least a short, written, instruction booklet on how to hold and blow it properly, how to tune it, and a few scales to practice. We will have to struggle with You Tube videos by CutiePie on how to play it properly. We both play DAA dulcimers and it would be nice to know how to use those tabs with the whistle. This being a soprano whistle, I'm not sure we can use the dulcimer tabs. Disappointed to see the retail price dropped about 12 pounds from what we paid two weeks ago when they were ordered. They are nice looking and the simple case will protect them for now. Some feedback on compatibility with dulcimers would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Rick, sorry to see that you were disappointed with how your order went. Firstly, we have excellent whistle lessons by John O'Brien which you can sign up to at any time. Conor in Customer Service will email you the details. Secondly, let us reassure you that the price has not decreased since you purchased your whistles! We'll be in touch to get this sorted for you anyway.

Happy St. Patrick's Day 2023 to all! My whistle arrived, and I love it! It's cute, tough, has a wonderful full, mellow tone-what's not to love! In 2012, I was in Ireland for a few days before the Olympics ( where our Canadian Men's rowing 8 beat the British- a story there). I was hoping to find a Bodhran, and all I was shown were dreadful 4-packs of small tourist tambourines. Last day, I was leaving the Post Office and headed back to the Morrison Hotel. I needed to get to a flight, but spotted a little music shop on a side street. Behind the shop door, as I opened it, was a rack of Bodhrans. Bought one, boxed and taped it roughly ,back to the Post Office, made my flight- and only now noticed a sticker inside- 'Paraic McNeela Dublin'! Loved the music in Ireland; I heard classical, trad, Riverdance etc.. Lucky trip. May be time to return.
