Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D Whistle – Penny Whistle

The Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D Whistle
The Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D Whistle

Key Whistle Features

The Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D Whistle is now available to address player requests for a Hi-D whistle with the following features:

1. Test players asked for a whistle that felt more substantial in the hand  like the other WhistleSmith whistles.

The Mountain Made Large Bore HI-D has a 3/4″ outside diameter to give a solid grip for your hands and is the same diameter as the C, Bb, A, Low G and Low F whistles.

2.Test Players asked for even easier finger pressure on the whistle.

The amount of pressure to seal the finger holes is reduced. This is a large factor to folks with hand problems that make gripping a small diameter whistle uncomfortable.

3. Test players asked that the finger holes feel perfectly smooth, like the whistle had been played.

The finger holes are beveled using a new technique and give an easier and smoother  air seal when playing the instrument. The fingering feels like the whistle has been broken in using your fingers.

4. Test Players asked for more bevel on the top cap.

The mouthpiece has a longer top bevel on the air cap to fit your lip even better.

5. Test players  asked for even more volume and carry to the sound for playing outdoors.

With a 5/8″ inside bore and a round fipple plug in the airway, the whistle plays with more volume, improved tone in the low octave, clearer tone in the top octave, and a dryer mouthpiece.

6. Players with large fingers asked for more finger hole separation.

The finger holes are positioned with additional space to reduce finger bumping and give folks with larger hands the room to play the Hi-D .

Whistle Details

The Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D measures twelve inches long and has a 5/8″ large bore. The instrument is well balanced and feels substantial in your hand with finger holes that are spaced to give good clearance for your fingers.

The whistle is easier to grasp with less stress on your hands because of the larger diameter of the whistle body. Additional inline finger hole spacing makes the whistle easier to finger without finger “jamming” for folks with larger hands.

The Mountain Made Large Bore Hi-D is made from a new hard case polymer and has a glass like bore that makes the air flow extremely efficient. The whistle is tuned to hand tuned at A-440 just intonation and electronically checked for accuracy.

The mouthpiece air cap is made of SPIF white polymer with a top bevel for lip comfort and slides off the whistle for cleaning the entire mouthpiece. The mouthpiece and tone body are one piece and utilize a dark gray poly plug from IMG plastics for the wind way.

WhistleSmith Thumb Ring – Small and Large

whistle-with-thumb-ring-2014

What is the difference between a Thumb Post and a Thumb Ring?

This is The WhistleSmith Thumb ring that snaps to the body of the whistle and rotates for most comfortable playing position.

Some folks would like a Thumb ring for both hands so I am listing them as an individual item.

Low whistles and flutes take a large ring and Hi whistles and flutes use a small ring. WhistleSmith Thumb rings are made to fit only WhistleSmith whistles and flutes. Pick Thumb ring size to fit your whistle and Add it to Your Cart. We will ship your Thumb ring with your whistle order.

thum_20rings_small1

I recently received a note from a music teacher who instructs both children and adults on playing the whistle. She was not familiar with the thumb ring and asked if I would explain how a thumb ring was constructed and how it works versus a thumb post.

I do not make a thumb post, however some makers include them with their whistles. A thumb post snaps onto your whistle and will keep your whistle from rolling and falling off a table. However, a thumb post has little value for holding your whistle. Thumb posts are generally injected molded and tend to break if snapped on and off the whistle frequently.

The WhistleSmith thumb ring is made from schedule 40 pipe and hand riveted together to make a very strong clip and ring combination. There are 20 steps involved in making a single thumb ring and each step is done by hand. WhistleSmith thumb rings are made to last, but can be easily repaired with common tools if necessary.

Here are some advantages to using a WhistleSmith thumb ring.

  • The WhistleSmith thumb ring is a full circle ring for your thumb. The ring swivels on a clip which snaps onto your whistle to allow movement and angle adjustment to the ring for the most comfortable playing position.
  • You have a solid grip on your whistle without having to practice fingering positions when using the thumb ring.
  • The thumb ring prevents your whistle from rolling off the counter or table top if you lay it down.
  • The thumb ring lets you hang your whistle on a cup hook or a wall pin when you are not playing. This provides a secure storage for your whistle and keeps it out of harms way.
  • Playing with a thumb ring improves your technical skills by eliminating learning hand grips when playing with all the holes open on your whistle.
  • You will not drop your whistle when you are playing because your lips anchor the end of your whistle and the thumb ring hold the body securely.
  • Confidence is a large part of playing your whistle. You need to know your whistle is held securely and cannot be dropped by accident when playing in front of an audience!
  • You can use a thumb ring on either hand. Place the thumb ring where you like it best. You can use a thumb ring on both hands at once if you wish!
