Description:
The Clarke Sweetone is a gold-finish tin whistle, also known as a tinwhistle or penny whistle. Its tapered sides bring the finger holes closer together and improve the range and accuracy of higher notes. The mouthpiece is designed for good airflow and tone, and the whistle takes very little air to play.
Its clear, crisp sound and good volume suit beginners and serious players alike. The key of D is widely used for Irish and folk session tunes and in many tin whistle tutor books.
