Susato offers several models with a full range of keys from lowest to highest. However, they are fairly popular among some of the best tin whistle players. Plastic whistles, in general, have a sweet tone, but they kind of lack the traditional smoothness and may sound slightly artificial. The upper octave is a bit shrill, maybe even too much if you practice at home. Susato whistles are made of ABS plastic and have a clear and crisp sound in both octaves. They differ from piece to piece (and some may sound squeaky).Generation Bb brass model sounds close to much more expensive whistles.Comes in various keys (Bb, C, D, Eb, F & G).However, they are both very similar, traditional-sounding. The nickel ones, except the silver look, sound edgier and brighter, while the brass models have a softer tone. Generation whistles are offered in brass vs nickel models. Brass Bb model is especially good, and many players praise Generation brand if you need that specific key. Therefore, it makes them a go-to solution for any other key than C & D. That’s a scarce case among entry-level whistles. However, the major advantage of Generations is that they come in various keys. Then you may find the one you genuinely like. So, our recommendation is to avoid Generation D whistle as a beginner, unless you can go to the shop in person and try 10 pieces. One can be really good, the other may sound squeaky. While it’s a nice-sounding whistle, not every piece of Generation whistles sounds the same, sometimes neither similar. While Generation whistles generally sound very similar to Waltons and Feadog, We’ve heard the same complaint from many players. It can tarnish over time and reveal stains (as all brass whistles do).Slightly louder (than most of the entry-level whistles).Versatile with breath control (can nicely play vibrato and pitch variations).Mellow but clear sound (similar to some much more expensive whistles).And to be honest, it’s probably better to buy this whistle for a gift as it just doesn’t play nearly as well as brass models in terms of tone clearness and stability. Probably the most known is a black one with a Guinness logo. It is also slightly louder among other beginner choices, which is achieved by a slightly wider bore diameter than a standard one.īesides brass whistles, Waltons also has coated models made of aluminum. As the name suggests, it has a mellow and soft sound. Waltons Irish tin whistle is made of a brass tube with a plastic mouthpiece. And the latter appeared to be more recommended by many players. Waltons brand offers several fine models of Irish whistles for beginners, yet advanced players love it too. Waltons Mellow D highly flexible beginner tin whistle It is considered the standard key, and luckily all of the whistle makers and brands offer so-called high D (soprano) whistles.
