The Low D Whistle by Tony Dixon is easy to play; has a decent sound. McNeela is a great company to do business with--they have lots of tips for playing.

I just began learning how to play the flute in January when I bought a Clark Sweetone flute and the Bill Ochs Tin Whistle handbook. No matter how much I practiced so much of what I played sounded horrible. I looked online and many of the teachers stated it had to be the user not the whistle. I finally did not believe they could be right and searched for a better quality flute. I bought this Tony Dixon DX005 flute and my world changed. My practicing was no longer a terrible sounding event. Because of the improvement of the quality of the sound I am enjoying so much more learning to play this instrument. I highly recommend this instrument for novices instead of the cheaper products. The sound will be better and you will not be discouraged, because the sound you will produce will not be irritating. Interestingly, now that I have improved using this flute, I play the cheap one much better. Still the difference in sound quality is huge. Don't be cheap, if you seriously want to learn the instrument start with this product. Once I get to intermediate skill level, I will upgrade again.

Excellent service and whistle McNeela were very quick in sending my whistle. I also bought their online whistle course and it’s the biz. I’m a complete beginner and totally useless but loving trying. The whistle is great, very lightweight and comfortable to play. Thanks.
