Thomann Irish Whistle D

Good value

The two pieces fit together snug and overall it feels fairly solid and not like a toy. It also has a pretty good tone. All things considered it's a good value.

Good for pitch bending!

Plays in tune easy as well!

Its ok

Its ok for the money or Like a toy flute :)

Just get one

Never had a whistle before, or played a similar instrument.

Got one just to try it. At this price point, there is little reason I think to fault it. I got a lot of enjoyment out of this, well worth the money.

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.

Irish whistle

Whistle comes with a case at this price point extreme value ,if a booklet of songs came with it I would rate it 5stars ,can't complain with it ,it's well made .

Great flute for beginners and fans of 'loud'

I play flute, bagpipes and lute in a historical street musical theatre group where I have to compete with up to 5 guild drums. These whistles are very much up to the task of making themselves heard amongst the drums.

Some of my group members are learning to play the whistle as well and for this price the whistles are very good beginners instruments.

Yes, they are a bit loud, especially in the upper octave, but hey, that's exactly what I'm looking for.

So if you want to buy a very good whistle for concerts, this may not be the one, but if you want to start out or you need volume, this is certainly a good way to go.

Beautiful instrument

I'm Irish & just wanted a little something that reminded me of home, of growing up & learning to play the tin whistle in school.

Of course it's not the best tin whistle in the world, but more than functional, and if you're looking for "that sound" then look no further.

Best Bang for Buck

Best bang for buck!

Clear tone and spot on tuning.

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

Overall - a great whistle - recommended.

Irish boy

It's made of plastic, but it has a sound that would make Molly Malone happy.
