Low D Whistle
The Original WhistleSmith Low D Whistle made for Small Hands
When something is extra good, Folks in Maine say it is Wicked Good!
WhistleSmith whistles and flutes are available only on line & offer you direct pricing
When I first started working on the Low whistle, I was attempting to make a very large whistle that my eleven year old grand daughter Marilyn could play with her small hands. I had purchased two Low D whistles for her only to find out how big they were and how far apart the finger holes were spaced. Everyone selling a low whistle, encouraged me to purchase this or that model and she would be able to play using "bag piper fingering". Well she couldn't reach the holes so she just sat down and cried. Being a good Grandfather, I told her I could make her a whistle she could play...and that's how I got started making this line of low whistles.
