All thin-walled cylindrical ones are off on the octave and have sharp C nats….it’s physics, not a lot you can do. I’m having a bit of a long journey with whistles too with each style having it’s own nature and foibles. Re: Beginner seeking a better Tin Whistle. As you say you’re a complete beginner anyway you’ll just have to get used to breath pressure and all - a fancier whistle won’t bring you there more quickly, and neither will switching from one whistle to the next.īut of course, having fun is also important, so if you don’t like your whistles get one that you think will please you more. But if you think that your Sweetone is good, I’d say stick with it for a while. That said, I concur with stanton135 that Feadóg whistles are (consistently!) very fine whistles. Cylindrical whistles, even "professionally" tweaked ones, will be flat in the upper register and have to be blown into tune. You may not like the looks or the timbre, but their intonation is actually really good IME. What exactly do you mean? I think those Sweetones are remarkably well in tune over 2 octaves due to their conical bore, and quite even in volume (no disproportionally quiet bottom or loud upper end). "I find myself wanting something with better intonation."
