What does Tweaked mean?

Tweaked refers to the many improvements that can be made to mass-produced whistles. In part, it refers to the finishing process that is omitted in low-cost instruments. This includes things like removing excess moulding and scruff that degrades the sound and fine-tuning the tone holes to ensure correct tuning. Finishing an instrument often makes the difference between an unplayable 'toy' and a valued professional instrument. But Jerry takes the job a lot further by also fixing basic design problems. In some cases the whole internal geometry is changed. Anyone who has tried their hand at tweaking a whistle will know that there is an art to it, an art that takes years of experience and consideration to develop.Oz Whistles is very proud to present Jerry's entire selection of tweaked pennywhistles. They are well worth the investment.
