Editorial Review
What goes up, must come down--and this slide whistle goes up and down the musical scale with ease. It's made of nickel-plated brass, is 12 inches long, and ranges two octaves; it's also solid to hold, not the usual plastic slide whistle that lasts about as long as popcorn at the movies. Like a trombone, you change pitch by blowing into the whistle and moving the slide. Included with your whistle are instructions for playing, a diagram of note positions, and a brief history of the slide whistle, a.k.a. the piston flute. Wetting your whistle couldn't be easier than this! Use it for sound effects on home videos, for kiddy musical presentations, or just to whistle while you work. Since it's a metal whistle, supervision of younger users is recommended. --Lee Strucker

This review is from: American Slide Whistle (Toy)
I'm an adult percussionist in a concert band and purchased this "toy" to complete & enhance the percussion score for a number we performed in a recent concert. That's the benefit of being a percussionist, oh what toys we get to play with! ;) This slide whistle is very well made & I don't need to worry about it getting banged around, it's not going to break. It has very good tonal quality as well and I was able to easily match the bands' tuning note. A quality instrument!

This review is from: American Slide Whistle (Toy)
This is a excellent quality slide whistle. It's made in the USA and even though it is a little pricey it is something I think will last as long as you don't lose it. I can't imagine wearing it out. Heavy nickel plating makes it durable and shiny. A couple of octive range. Slide is a little firm so might be harder for childred (under 5) to control at first. Great little whistle with a nice sound. Not so much a Toy as a beginning musical instrument. I Recommend it

This review is from: American Slide Whistle (Toy)
The highest note is airy sounding and needs adjustment but the medium and low notes are perfect. The durability of this is great! The slide is very long so I do not sugest that this is to be handled by small children. Overall it is a good product and worth the cost.
