Fantastic Whistle! What a fantastic instrument! I absolutely LOVE the sweet tone of this whistle. It speaks easily and well in tune. Intonation is impeccable in both registers. The weighted solid brass gives it a really nice feel; that slight heft lets you know right where it is and the balance is perfect - seems to float in your hands. On top of all that, it is an absolutely beautiful instrument. The finish and every detail scream highest quality and craftsmanship. The truly amazing thing is the phenomenally reasonable price: it's hard to believe a whistle of this quality is available at this price point. I was blessed to have received what I believe to be a production prototype of the Wild whistle in D when I purchased a Cygnet Rosewood Flute in 2020. It is a fine whistle and I was excited to see them go in production. Even more excited to get one in my hot little hands. The result is even better than I could have imagined. The only question now is, should I get a Bb or Eb next?

Hi Gene, your feedback is excellent - thank you! The team here at McNeela always recommend the Wild Whistle range as the best 'bang for buck' whistle you can buy so it's always great to hear confirmation of the same from our customers. We hope to hear from you again soon!

You can spend years… …trying to find “the whistle.” Or you can just jump to the head of the line and get it here. I’ve had my Wild C for a few weeks now. It instantly became the whistle I grab when I’m just sitting around. I have no complaints at all. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. Solid tone throughout its range. Excellent volume balance between octaves. Seamless transitions between octaves. Spot-on intonation! Love the tone/voice of this whistle. I bought this whistle (along with a D) after receiving a Wild Bb. I couldn’t believe how amazing the Bb is! After years of looking for the perfect Bb, it just showed up in my mailbox one day. I couldn’t stop playing it. It sounded so good that I decided to take the plunge and order the C and the D. One of the best whistle decisions I’ve ever made. And the craftsmanship of all three whistles? Absolutely top notch work. There’s are whistles that will last several lifetimes, looking, feeling and sounding the way we all know a great whistle should.

Hi Jim. Wow - what incredible feedback! Finding the 'right whistle' surely is a difficult endeavour. We're so glad you were able to end your search and find joy in the Wild Whistles.

Excellent instrument which maintains a stable tone at least to the high B - probably more with practice

Nice whistle I ended up buying all the Wild whistles after trying the high D. I would recommend these whistles to anyone that wants a high quality whistle for a fairly inexpensive price

Wild Irish Whistles I first purchased a Wild 'A' to add to my collection, and was very impressed with the tone and feel of the whistle. This inspired me to upgrade some of my other whistles (Generation, Clark) with Wild's 'Bb' and 'C' whistles. These are very well built, easily tunable, and play the full range of the instrument with ease. If your serious about what you play, I highly recommend the Wild whistles. They are worth every penny.
