| Tone
Bodies are the lower part of the flute or whistle that has the tone holes in it.
The copper and brass tone bodies are interchangeable with the copper and
brass whistle mouthpieces and flute mouthpieces.
Make
sure to specify brushed or polished finish. By default, it will be made
to match rest of the order. Unless specified, the finish is brushed. A
note on tonebodies: Prior
to fall of 2001, I had one tonebody size. The small size. Now the
small size will work with small hands but there is a tradeoff. The main
focal point of these three sizes is the bottom tonehole. The smaller
this tonehole becomes, the weaker that the 2nd note of the scale
becomes. I'm working on a list on finger spacing so that you can
determine what size is best for you. Typically, the Low-D small model
can be played by the fingertip fingering by a person with average hands. Note:
The small hands tonebodies will play better on flutes than whistles because
the flute players embouchure is not mechanically fixed like a whistle and can
make up for intonation somewhat on small holes. YES,
