Introducing the Percussion Plus triple tone train whistle
The Percussion Plus triple tone whistle has 3 pipes which have been tuned roughly to an Am triad (E3, A3 and C4) and have been polished by hand. It produces a tri-tone dissonant chord just like the whistle on an old American steam train. Each low pitch is generated by a metal organ pipe with a durable plastic mouthpiece.
Originally used on the Leicester and Swannington railway line, this traditional model has been in use since the early 1900s and would make a great addition to any percussionist’s kit bag.
Made in the UK
Percussion Plus whistles are manufactured in Birmingham and were carefully developed over a number of years. Outstanding craftsmanship and strict quality testing ensure every whistle is of the highest standard.
