BeschreibungThe Black Silk Low D Whistle by Howard Whistle England is an exceptional instrument that combines traditional craftsmanship with a unique look.
The Close Spacing is his latest creation; the holes are slightly closer together, making it ideal for smaller hands.
The elegant, deep-black Silk Finish is created using a particularly durable powder coating with a silky-glossy surface. This coating is carefully removed by hand around the fingerholes, revealing the natural gold of the high-quality brass body. Since this is not an applied layer of gold but the original brass material, this golden accent will never flake off or wear away.
The precise machining and subsequent polishing of the fingerholes give them a slightly refined contour that differs from the standard design and provides a particularly comfortable playing experience.
Every whistle is truly one-of-a-kind with an impressive presence. The photos can hardly do justice to the beauty of this instrument—when held in your hand, the Low D Black Silk from Howard Whistle England looks even more impressive.
An instrument for musicians who appreciate not only exceptional sound but also unique design and the highest quality craftsmanship.
Our Howard Whistles come standard with the Balanced Head:
The Balanced Head is the easiest to play of the three available whistle heads and is ideal for nearly all musical styles.
It combines the best qualities of the other models: It has a touch of the warm, resonant richness of the Reed Head and, at the same time, some of the airy, lively response of the Chiff Head, which is less pronounced in the Reed Head.
If you decide to go with just one Whistle head, the Balanced Head —especially for beginners. Its balanced response, easy playability, and versatile sound make it the ideal all-around head for musicians of all skill levels.
