Thomann Irish Whistle C Reviews

Great For Beginners

Looks and sounds great. Sturdy, but lightweight without feeling or looking cheap. Great for practice and travel alike.

For beginners

This whistle is average whistle. If you are beginner and You don't want to pay so much. Yes this is your first whistle. :)

Easy to play.

Soft tones

This product is a delight. Very soft tones with an easy change of octaves. And the material is pleasant to the touch.

4.5 stars

Best bang for buck!

Clear tone and spot on tuning.

The C scale has a mellow tone compared to the D.

The second octave is a little more difficult (as compared to an expensive whistle).

Overall - a great whistle - recommended.

A simple 'ok' sound. Second octave lacks

Bought this C whistle without too much expectations. Compared to a generation whistle, the sound is louder and more narrow with less 'overtones'. In the first octave, the notes are easier to play and it's harder to overblow the low C and D. The sound is ok there and relatively loud. It's more like between a tin whistle and a plastic recorder.

In the second octave, the sound lacks the singing in it. It's also not easy for all the notes to sound clear in the high octave. Sound production is a lot but it lacks the rich tones.

Very good whistle

Very nice whistle, simpler really to the famous Susato whistle, only a little easier to play.

Would be good in a noisy session Nice tone and fantastic price!

Brilliant whistle

This whistle is better than a similar looking well known brand only this is 6 times cheaper

its ok

Its an ok flute. Intonation allt better than the irish flute they sell here for Twice or three Times the money. IF ur a good flute player u might get this to sound good but for me as a beginner its not a good place to start.

Great item that exceeds expectations

Expecting a plactic whistle, when this came I thought it was another product.

This has sturdy plastic and precise, crisp openings for best performance out of the box! Tuned precisely like it's a 3x more expensive product, this seems like a bargain.
