Reduced. Howard Low C Whistle. ?79

[rgutsell]

Hallo

This is a black HOWARD low C flute/whistle. ?79

(PS Please check the images. The black finish makes it difficult to photograph in the normal setting of my home, with limited lighting. Apologies for the lack of detail)

For those unclear what a whistle is, its a "Vertical Flute", usually used as a folk instrument (very flute like sound, easier to play than a flute). The penny whistle is the basic, plain, cheap version of it; this is a Professional instrument, and very beautiful.

It is tuneable, with an ABS high grade plastic adjustable head. A line around the head of the body, assists in the tuning.

It is powder coated black on thin wall brass tubing (which makes it very difficult for me to photo in the normal light environment of the home; my apologies for the lack of details in the images)

It is made in the UK and weighs 0.20kgs.

It has a lovely well rounded tone, and has good projection. The larger holes give you a good range of control and finger movement when you want to slur the notes, but require you to be accurate in your initial finger placement.

It has hardly been used. The finger holes are pristine with no edge wear or loss of colour, and there is only a small amount of faint superficial marking at the bottom end of the tube (not evident in the photo)

Excellent instrument for playing at home. Its not harsh or over loud.

They start at around ?115.00 new in the UK, so this a very nice reduction for an almost as new instrument.

Please get in touch with questions, of for more information. Postage in the UK will be ?5.65-?6.75, to other areas and Ireland a bit more.
