The tin whistle is a simple wind instrument with six holes and a mouthpiece. The working principle behind a tin whistle is similar to that of a flute except that you blow directly into one end, like a referee’s whistle, and not from an angle, like a normal flute. The tin whistle is a standard instrument in established Irish music.

The tin whistle is likewise known as the pennywhistle. It is normally made of a molded plastic mouthpiece attached to a cylindrical brass tube with six holes set in it. Different sizes of tin whistles will play in dissimilar keys. The tin whistle is likewise commonly diatonic altho accidentals may be played by half-covering the holes. Mass produced tin whistles vary a lot in terms of quality so it is wise to check out a tin whistle before you buy it. Play the tin whistle to check the tone.

Whistle Doesn’t Work
By jyck
The hat and bandana are cute, but a little on the little side. The bandana in the photo looks not one thing like what you get, btw. You get a little triangle of a bandana with a piece of felt stitched to the other side, a phony knot and velcro on the ends, much like a bib.

Horrible quality
By Matthew
The hat is thin and flimsy – I was expecting canvas for the money.
The hankerchief is exceedingly thin and coarse, not cotton.

I just threw away $13 – The person who makes this and the person merchandising it ought to be ashamed.

Not worth the money
By Harold P. Hansen
This product is wholly unsatisfactory. In my sentiment the whistle is so cheaply made, it can not make any sound even close to a train whistle… or even any kind of decent whistle sound at all! To me this is just junk. I’ve already expended too much, so the cost of shipping it back wouldn’t make it any better.
