OAK
TIN WHISTLE
An American made nickel-plated whistle with a black
plastic mouthpiece. A little heavier than the Generation whistle below.
Some say it requires less air than other whistles, making it
a bit less forgiving for a beginner.

GENERATION
WHISTLES
This is the whistle you most often see played
by seasoned musicians. The mouthpiece is glued
on, so you have to use heat
to loosten the glue before you can tune them. Some perceive the
nickel plated ones to have a somewhat sharper tone, but that
is up to debate.
