Falster Reed Pipe- Kazoo of the Gods!

[@naturtranekula7032]

The sound of the Falster pipe is fantastic. I think I may pick one up.

I've been eyeing one of these from this very vendor, so I highly appreciate the demonstration. It looks like a very well made piece too, which helps with the decision.

Thanks for the video. My lovely wife got me one for Christmas/Yule/midwinter festival. Can it be dismantled? Is there access to the reed for replacement or tuning? Grateful for any information. 👍

[@hrafnrikardsson793]

On mine the horn can be removed. The mouthpiece can also be removed. Be gentle with yours and see if they come apart 🙂

I just received my falster pipe from Mario Viking. It looks beautiful. However, I am having some trouble. The lower I go on the notes, the reed starts an annoying high pitch. I am relatively new to reed instruments. I have a bombard that begins to play well, but stops in a minute. I am more used to various flutes, fipples, side blown, notched and rim-blown. Do you have any advice?

[@hrafnrikardsson793]

Experiment with different breath pressures for each note. Ancient instruments can be odd like that 🙂

[@BrennaCorbit]

@@hrafnrikardsson793 Thanks for getting back. I have been trying different breath pressure. This will take some time. It takes a lot of breath, and even more so to get the low note, which is contrary to flutes that require less breath for lower notes. I did much better yesterday, though. In the meantime, I am sure my neighbors hate me. LOL

[@BrennaCorbit]

@@hrafnrikardsson793 I contacted Mario. He told me to gently lift the reed up. That did the trick. It will still occasionally make a high pitch squeal, but that usually happens when I am trying circular breathing. I am not getting the same pressure when I squeeze the air from my cheeks while inhaling through my nose. This will take some practice.

Good stuff 👏

[@notfoundrick3878]

Wow thats way louder than I was expecting, what scale can you play with it?

[@hrafnrikardsson793]

The scale is whatever the maker tunes it to upon creation, in this case, Key of G :)

[@Dood_Spooce]

Ordered mine from the same vendor just today! Very excited. How long did it take to deliver for you?

[@hrafnrikardsson793]

Really quick! Around one week to England 🙂
