Description
This is a new MackBeth Whistle, #17, a telescoping brass high D model with white plastic head and blue fipple plug. It plays quietly with a light airflow so good breath control is important if you want to use it for home practice. I think it could punch through at some sessions too, especially in the second octave, if you give it a bit more air. The tone is clear. It’s hard to give this one up, to be honest.
Both OXXOOO and OXXXOX work for C natural with very slight differences; you may find you prefer the tone of one over the other. It is a little less prone to condensation clogging in colder areas due to having a plastic headpiece. It collapses to just under 6 inches. if you collapse it too far you might have to disassemble the three pieces to get the bottom one pulled out again – don’t panic!
This whistle comes with a black zip up travel case.
