Great sound. In the high octaves especially you think that it's a bird's chirp. It's really great for jigs one of my favorites to play on this one is swallowtail jig. Compared to the mellow dog which I like for slow airs and generally slower pieces this one's place I think is for jigs and reels. Also I've noticed it takes a little bit less air compared to the mellow dog to reach the higher octaves. It's a bit more difficult to get used to but it's worth the effort.

My school-age daughter and I have been enjoying playing a recorder provided by her school music program. I decided to branch out, and bought this whistle. It is nice quality, and has a really amazing tone. It is quite a bit different from a recorder, and I like it so much I found myself considering irish whistle lessons. My daughter fights me for it sometimes. It seems to have been "tweaked" as advertised as it has a tone like what I hear from professional whistles in recordings and youtube, although I am no expert. I would recommend this as an excellent whistle.

Freeman takes great pride and care in his Tweaked Whistles. The Blackbird has a wonderful sound and its silver color is very attractive. I also find the sound holes easy to feel so I know my fingers are in the right place. I would describe the sound as bird like, so the name Blackbird suits it.

You would be hard pressed to find a penny whistle with this price point that plays like this. I have untweaked whistles that were very inexpensive. They play poorly in the second octave. The Blackbird doesn't have these problems. You don't need a lot of wind to get there either. I have whistles that play nicer than this but they are worth hundreds of dollars. You can't beat this whistle for the money. If your just starting out and want to avoid the pitfalls of owning a cheap whistle, buy this. Everything will get easier and more enjoyable once you have it in your hands.

I just received my tweaked Blackbird and I'm happy to say the item is exactly as stated, it was shipped immediately, and received almost on time (it seems to have been held up in Canada customs for a few days.). It was very well-packed and arrived safely. The whistle is a joy to play because I can finally hit the high notes (as a beginner, that's sthg I had trouble with when playing other whistles). It's very clear in the low notes, and is in tune. Thanks - can't wait to practice my favourite tunes!
