Mel Bay Bright Brass Whistle
Key of D
This Pennywhistle is made by Mel Bay - a name recognized for
quality in music since 1947. It is tuned to the key of "D" - this is the most
popular key for traditional Irish music. It's made of polished brass, giving it a high
quality bright finish (most other inexpensive brass whistles have a duller brushed
finish). It has a plastic fipple (mouthpiece). The plastic fipple has become accepted by
traditional players, due to the consistency of sound that it provides. It is played very
easily in the entire two octave range, and has a pleasant, warm tone.
It comes in a reusable see-through pouch (see pic below), and
includes a fingering chart. Note that this whistle can be make tunable. See our Beginner's Section for instructions on how
to do this.
