Description:
The Clarke Original Tin Whistle offers a mellow, melodic and slightly breathy sound with good volume and the traditional Clarke chiff. Its wooden-top design gives it a more traditional character than whistles with plastic mouthpieces.
Play it for Irish and folk session tunes, or use it with most tin whistle tutor books. The classic black-and-gold finish completes this historically rooted instrument, produced in essentially the same way as Robert Clarke's first whistle of 1843.
