This type of defect has a specific name, although it eludes me now. It is caused by the plastic not joining ...

sorta love them .... I guess that means I like them. I find that when I got to irish music festivals that I see and hear more susato's then any other whistles. They sound great outside when played with other instruments, by players much better then me, not too load or not too quiet. I like mine. My ...

Recently I purchased 12, yes one of each type, Generation whistles from Thom's online store. They arrived on time and well wrapped and are sold at a very reasonable price. Well I tried them all for about 15 minutes or more each and most were good players (you know what I mean) except for 2; the nick...
