The thin light of light going through the fipple should have no obstructions–it should be a clean rectangle without any obstructions. Look through the bottom of your tin whistle towards a light and pay special attention to the slit of light coming from the mouthpiece (called a fipple on these types of flutes). Inexpensive tin whistles are made in huge batches, and because they are made in mass and sell for less than $20 it’s common for these types of tin whistles to have small defects–some of them (luckily) that are easy to fix. Perhaps one of the easiest ways to improve the sound of your tin whistle is to fix any issues it may have. That’s the reason why I’m writing this post–to pass along all that I’ve learned since then to make your tin whistle playing sound better. I experienced this same thing when I picked up the tin whistle. You’re probably here because you’ve listened to some amazing tin whistle players or maybe you’ve watched some Irish Sessions on YouTube and thought “wow… the tin whistle sounds amazing!” Then, when you excitedly buy your own tin whistle, you instead hear squeaks, squeals, or shrieks and think: ‘”why does my tin whistle sound so bad?” As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
