Reyburn Whistles are handcrafted, tunable instruments offering unique choices for the discriminating player.
The heart of the low whistle, the head,
is personally crafted from hand selected Eastern rock maple, hand
rubbed to a lustrous finish. The finish not only coats the surface,
but actually penetrates deeply into the cellular structure of
the wood, rendering it extremely strong and stable. |
 |
Brass tubing,
with a gleaming brushed finish, forms the body of the whistle,
and incorporates bore perturbations for octave balancing. The
maple head joint, which utilizes a double o-ring tuning slide
for ease of tuning, generates a rich, warm, reedy tone and is
extremely comfortable in the mouth. |
| Choices of finger
hole patterns and bore sizes are available for the Low D while the
Low F and G offer choices of hole patterns. Custom keys are available
on request. Reyburn Whistles is offering tunable soprano whistles
in the keys of D and C and are available as a set (one head and
two bodies). In the alto range Bb is available These instruments
use a Delrin head, a brass body and utilize bore purturbations for
octave balancing. These whistles are fairly loud, have a bit of
chiff, a wisp of breath and offer a full, round somewhat complex
tone and are suitable for session play. New to the line is a narrow
bore D for a quieter, sweeter sound. For those who want a different
sound from their whistle, alternative scales are now available including
a natural minor, Hungarian minor and an Oriental scale (four holes)
called "Insempe". Please email or phone me for alternative
scale orders. |
