A really good tin whistle for the price!

This thing feels great to play and sounds pretty decent. It does have some intonation issues and goes slightly out of tune as it approaches the lower end of its range, but aside from that, it can't be beat. Definitely a super good purchase and I'm glad I decided to shell out for it!

My favorite brand of tin whistle

If you need a tin whistle, the clarkes penny whistle is the one. Theres a reason this brand has been around for generations. Sure there are more expensive whistles out there, but if you’re a casual player, you can’t go wrong with clarkes. It has a wooden mouthpiece which gives its distinctive smooth tone.

Pros.. bargain price, beautiful tone and nicely designed

Cons.. for a tin whistle, NONE.

Great deal for the price

I'm not a professional whistle player, I bought this whistle along with 3 others to learn and try them. And, of course, for fun :-)

This one is built well (it has only 2 pieces - a metal body and a plastic mouthpiece) and is quite stable in terms of the sound - It the plastic mouthpiece makes it quite reliable and predictable compared to whistles with wooden parts in the mouthpiece.

I like the sound and it's easy to use. I know other whistles that sound better to my ear but they also cost much more.

This one is very simple, but sometimes less is more :-)

Good stuff for beginners

As a beginner, I think the sound isn't the best. But its ok for the price I guess.

Beautifull in look and sound

I love Tin Whistles.

They are fine little Instruments, easy to learn to play and must not be very expensive.

The truth is, one of the cheapest are one of the best.

The Clarkes are surley one of them and every collector should have Clarkes

The Clarke Tin whistle in C is in the shape and key of the first Clarkes (the first tin whistles ever) roled tin with a wooden block in the mouthpiece but they are painted beautifull in black and with golden diamonds on it

Together with the "original clakes victorian in d" they are the most original whistles one can buy

Don?t worry about the low prize, you will get a real and good instrument. These Tin whistle are no toys and you can make real music on it

strongly recommend this whistle for beginners and advanced players/collectors

or better get 2, one for you and one as a present ;-)

A nice little instrument

To be honest, although the sound is good, I expected to be better but that might just be my inexperience. On a general note I would say it is worth the money as it's not an expensive instrument to have and a nice pastime activity.
