Stephen Doherty & Zac Leger - set of reels

Stephen D from Co. Mayo and Zac L from the U.S. Our first attempt at a video. A few flubs here and there, but the overall set isn't too bad (hopefully). Set of reels on low whistle(Stephen) and guitar (Zac). Tunes are a fling, Cuz Tehan's and the Bells of Tipperary.

Excelent, guys!!! )))))))))

Zac, say, plz, what guitars and strings you play?

[Legertymusic]

@overtonwhistle, in this video I was borrowing a friend's Martin DX1. No idea what kind of strings were on it. Prob regular mediums. On my guitars I use a mixture of Elixir mediums for the top 4 strings (.13 on the top) and then a custom Elixir .52 for the bottom 5th string and a John Pearse .72 (occasionally an Elixir .68) for the low string.

what is the make of that whistle. love the sound and would love to grab one.

[Legertymusic]

@mcnic17, Stephen is playing my Bernard Overton low F whistle, made in 2000. Bernard is no longer with us, unfortunately, but his protege Colin Goldie is making some fine whistles in the Overton style. Phil Hardy (Kerry Whistles) and Misha Somerville (MK whistles) are also making some killer F whistles. Worth checking them all out if you can and seeing what you like best.
