Gewa Generation Whistles Flageolet D-tuning nickel plated - silver

Good and soft sound

I've only been playing for a few weeks but in that time I've purchased several whistles. Since many are inexpensive I was interested in trying different types to see if one felt better to me. I was most happy (so far) with the playability of my brass Generation D so I decided to try out the Nickel version. It became my favorite immediately! I like the look of the Nickel more than the brass and it has a nice feel in your hands although I'm not sure if there is any real weight difference in the two. The best part was it seemed easier to play than any of my others; I was able to play the D without screeching and when I attempted high notes they actually sounded like notes and not like I was being attacked by seagulls! I actually feel like I will be able to play music and not just practice scales forever! I have heard that because of the way the whistles are made you can buy several of the same brand and have a few duds, so this may have been my lucky draw, but if my experience is any indication of this whistles character I hope you try it out. As far as the tone goes I'm afraid I'm a little too inexperienced still to offer an educated critique but it sounds nice to me and again, being able to play the notes well as soon as I got it out of the package was a nice surprise and a boost to my motivation! It did arrive in a mailing envelope and not a box but was in excellent condition.

bonne petite flute metal, pas toujours simple de trouver le bon souffle mais amusant

I thought this was going to be lower pitched (larger) than your standard penny whistle but it is actually high pitched and quite small...the wholes are very close together...a ittle cramped while playing

Have tried for three days to get some semblance of notes. Unfortunately. this is a Irish whistle that does note have many notes, and cannot be controlled by the amount of air blown through it. Maybe I received a faulty unit, but will not reorder.Have asked for a refund.
