Acme 472 Swanee slide whistle

Introducing the Acme 472 Swanee slide whistle

Great for parties or for adding a classic comedic effect to a video, the Acme slide whistle produces a clear tone and is fun for players of all levels and ages. This instrument can also be used in the classroom, as it’s the perfect way to introduce children to exploring different pitches and sound uses.

To play, simply blow into the tip and slide the plunger up and down to change pitch. Slide slowly for a classic comic sound effect, or rapidly to produce a chirp-like bird sound. And if you are realty skilled, it is even possible to play a tune!

Hand made in the UK

To this day Acme whistles are manufactured in Birmingham using the original techniques and machinery from the 1800s. Outstanding craftsmanship and strict quality testing ensure every whistle is of the highest standard.
