Oak 'D' Tin Whistle 
Made with solid brass, the whistle is then triple nickel plated to give it a wonderful lustre. A great starter whistle, it has a bright tone that has a bit of an 'edge' in the upper register, and requires less air than many other inexpensive whistles.
Length: 11.6"

Gift for my daughter I bout this penny whistle as a gift for my daughter who is almost 4. It is a good value for the quality, something she will be able to begin learning and use for years. She still hasn’t quite figured it out, but I can play it and she’s enthusiastic about learning!

Clarity The "Reed" doesn't have the best clarity. At first, I thought it was just me not getting accurate finger placement, but it's actually the whistle. But for that price, I don't really expect more. I'm not complaining.

This particular whistle compared to the last one I purchased is so different… does not sound anything like the last one… even though they are the same , however when I called them they were more than helpful with me . Brilliant customer service and you can’t ask for more than that x

At first I loved it, but it doesn't take long before you outgrow the instrument and it starts to sound rather windy and unrefined. Granted that master whistlers, like the fine people at McNeela or John Obrien could play it and make it sound good no problem, however for a beginner it's probably best to invest in something of a higher quality. If you're just dabbling then by all means the Oak D is pretty good, but if you thinkyou might get serious, go for a Wild Irish or Killarny or Tony Dixon model. You can tune the Oak D but you need some hot water and grease. Great for dabbling but you will outgrow the instrument pretty quickly.

At first glance and first feel I was taken with the Oak in the key of D. I'll need more practice to have any substance behind my opinions. But the build quality is superb for the price and as a beginner's whistle I don't think you can go wrong. McNeela were on time with the shipping and I'm pleased with the product.
