Hinger Private Collection Now Available
A rare opportunity to own memorabilia and personal instruments collected and played by Fred D Hinger, famous percussionist/timpanist. This collection also includes unique instruments and protoypes developed for the Hinger Touch Tone Corporation.
Beautiful extra large nickel plated bass song whistle. This whistle is a full 17" in length not including the slide. Heavy nickel plated whistle with a beautiful hardwood stop on the end. This bass song whistle has a much lower and larger range than a normal size song whistle. The attached comparison photo shows our bass song whistle next to a standard sized whistle from the same era and maker. The slide works perfectly and this whistle produces a beautiful tone. This is a rare opportunity to own a unique bass slide whistle. Add the linked standard size slide whistle from the same maker for a beautiful matched pair.
