Maybe you could have a chat with Daniel Bingamon.
Here's his website http://www.tinwhistles.us/jubilee/
or send him a PM.

Maybe you could scale up the Guido Gonzato plans and make one yourself. Otherwise, Dan Bingamon is a good bet.

Why don't you make your own from PVC using TWJcalc, the whistle calculator program designed by our own "Dr Phill"

Thanks for the advert! You can also use the online version at http://twjcalc.sourceforge.net/, though you get less functionality.

Home made bass A is possible, even for someone who has never made a whistle before (as long as you are not too fussy):
