The 'Paper' Qwistle v2.1
£50.00
A quiet, lightweight Qwistle for playing at home.
The Paper Qwistle v2.1 is a super-lightweight, 3D-printed pennywhistle in D with a sweet, low-volume tone.
Made to order. Current estimated turnaround: at least three months.
If a finished instrument is explicitly shown as ready to dispatch, it may be sent sooner.
Key features
- Very quiet, sweet tone, intended for home practice rather than loud sessions or gigs.
- Well tuned throughout, with an easy range up to E in the third register.
- Smooth octave transitions and a light, responsive feel.
- Designed by Donald WG Lindsay.
Why “Paper”?
The name refers to its 0.7 mm wall thickness, grainy paper-like surface and white colour. It is made from powdered plastic and is deceptively robust in ordinary use.
It is quieter and lighter than the thicker-walled Qwistle, making it particularly well suited to living rooms and close neighbours.
Optional case
A lightweight mini Kist can be made to house the Paper Qwistle. Please enquire for current options and price.
