Also I'm actually quite surprised that my brass burke dented a little from just putting it in my backpack (albeit with a lot of stuff inside to begin with, especially my hard flute case). But I myself have started to be a bit unsatisfied with the tone and response so I've went back to my generation brass. Every generation I've owned worked extremely well.

@hawkboymh I've never owned a composite whistle, only the brass session. However the note I got was hearing from others on the chiff and fipple forum. If it doesn't break when dropped, I guess then they aren't as fragile as I thought, but they are still quite weak being just Bakelite and fibre. So, do refrain from applying too much force to such whistles as a precaution.

@deterdettol I've been playing Burke composites, narrow bore, session bore and low D for years. All have been dropped several times with no problem. I stepped on the low D by mistake after one too many beers. No problems. Anything that would break these would bend a brass whistle. Your statement about sound and weight is spot on. Maybe your experience with fragility is different. Did this actually happen to you or are you speculating?

@clflover is yours the session type? i'm thinking of getting one, but i heard that the high B needs lots of air.. do you find that to be the case?

Too bad that a post designed to separate sounds, you use such a cruddy microphone, record at a distorted level, and have some kind of squirrel-cage sound underneath it all, along with some kind of continuous.thumping.

Caution:
The composite material gives Burke's whistles made from the material a tone similar to whistles made from wood, and makes the whistles light-weight.
However, if dropped or sat upon the whistle may shatter as the material is fragile.
If you want to buy a Burke whistle made from the composite, please make sure you keep your whistle safe.

The composite makes me smile.
Sounds like a wooden whistle
right out of the days of legend.
Thanks for posting this.

Brass Burke is definitely my choice. Playing it for 4 years now and still in love.
