"The Traveler" is one Wicked Good Whistle because it fits the bill when you are on the road.

If you play your whistle outdoors, this is the model for you! You can play this whistle in a gale force wind and it will not miss a note. The Traveler will stay in tune in cold weather and the mouthpiece can be easily rotated to the bottom of whistle for playing in the wind. This is a great whistle to take camping, hiking or playing around the fire. I have played this whistle from Northern Maine to Florida and everywhere in between and it is a great size to carry when you are traveling or on vacation.

I have improved the Straight Shot mouthpiece in shape and it feels silky smooth against your lip. The mouthpiece has a bevel on the top to fit your lip when the whistle is played in a variety of positions. The tuning slide is made of copper for strength and slides efficiently without sticking. There are no rubber O rings to break and lubricating the slide is optional.

The tuning slide clip is slotted on the back so you can see the amount of adjustment in the slide when tuning to another whistle. It also strengthens the slide and keeps the whistle aligned when rotating the mouthpiece to the down position. If you do not wish to use the tuning slide clip, it is easily removed.

Whistle is fifteen inches long, made for small hands fingering (ladies extra small glove size), Folks with large hands will find the fingering distances to be extra comfortable and easy to play. The finger holes on this whistle are not offset on the bottom hole (everything is in a straight line) and are suitable for left handed players, exchange hand players (right hand top, left hand bottom) and make playing the instrument when your hands are stiff more comfortable.

The tone body has a hand reamed bottom bore to give the bottom notes on the lower octave louder volume and better balance to the instrument.

The Traveler lets you play in the Keys of A and D and B minor without having to learn any tricky cross fingering. This is a very handy whistle to add to your collection.

Whistle comes apart for easy cleaning at the slide and breaks down into two pieces for travel. Straight Shot mouthpiece is made of Bristol white polymer pipe and has a clear acrylic plug from TAP plastics. The mouthpiece contains no wood or metal and the top slides completely off for cleaning and can be adjusted to best playing position on the top and bottom octaves.

The Traveler has a rich, full sound you'll enjoy, with balanced high and low octaves. There is plenty of volume for any type of playing.
