Thumbhole Explained

Description: The thumbhole option is a way of providing a perfect C natural on your D whistle so that you can play in the key of G or other scales that need a flattened 7th. It also allows you to get an octave C natural on the D whistle as well, to extend the scale and also to add options for ornamentation. The extra tonehole is located on the back of the tube between the top two toneholes and the note is played by playing a "B" and lifting the thumb. If you keep your thumb in place, the whistle will play exactly as a regular 6 holed whistle. The option is available on any model in any key. This is a great option that allows you a very accurate second scale on your whistle.

Note: If you are not sure you want this option, you might want to be sure that you want that particular whistle first.

Policy on returns of whistles with thumboles: If you decide that you don't like the thumbhole and want a whistle without it, or want a refund, you will not receive a refund on the $15 fee for the thumbhole and there will be a restocking fee of $15 on exchanges and $25 on refunds.
