Setanta Soprano Whistle - High C 
LEAD TIME
We're extremely proud to announce the all new Setanta Soprano Whistles. Watch and listen to the video below to hear the different fipples and their various tones. Enjoy!

Precision engineered with an excellent, vibrant full-bodied tone featuring superior tuning and responsiveness. We provide a top-end product at an astonishingly affordable price.
Personalise your whistle with your own choice of fipple:
1. The All Brass Head - providing the warmest tone. Has more mid-range frequencies and sounds particularly at home with the C whistle.
2. The Brass and Delrin Head - a little more balanced tone with a healthy smattering of high frequencies, providing more colour and body.
3. The Delrin Head - featuring the colour and body of the Brass & Delrin Head plus more high end frequencies. The result is a brighter tone more suited to cutting through in a session.

Wonderfully Satisfied! What can I say but that I an wonderfully satisfied with the instrument! I am especially appreciative of the continual contact with me because of the delay of delivery due to the pandemic. The quality of your instruments is fantastic and satisfying . Your customer care is superb! Thank you and keep up the outstanding work!

As good as hoped for but not superb. When buying this whistle I was choosing between this C whistle and the 'killarney whistle'. For people who are in a similar situation for comparison purposes I have Sindt, Killarney and adjusted Cilian O'Brien whistles. This whistle is louder than the Sindt but not as balanced across the two octaves and the low D has a narrow air pressure in which it will give a consistently in tune low D which is unlike but the Sindt and Killarney. It is also louder than the Killarney and the brass is sweeter than the silver of the one that I have though I understand that Killarney have since brought out a brass version. For what it's worth the delivery and packaging was A+

I am delighted with this instrument! It is well worth my wait! You all have been wonderful during this pandemic in maintaining communication, producing a top notch gem of whistle and divering a well packaged item! I cannot get over the range and tonality of my Setanta Whistle! Just beautiful!!! Only wish a case with the whistle's insignia on it was included to help protect the instrument more. Thank you so very much!

A lovely whistle, beautifully made and finished. It's responsive and easy to play with high notes that are chirpy without being shrill. It's a world away from cheaper instruments, you can feel the quality as soon as you pick it up.

It arrived a few days ago, so it's been in quarantine and I've just opened it today. It was very well packed and it has a rigid plastic square section case. It's an exceptionally nice-looking whistle (I have the brass fipple with a delrin cork option) and very well made from quality materials. It feels very solid and sturdy. The tone is lovely throughout the range and it's easy to play. It has, to my ears, just the right amount of chiff - not too much, but it still has that lovely whistle sound. I can't fault it at all.
