However, they are inexpensively mass produced, and there are issues both with variability from one to the next, and with details that are compromised due to injection molding's limitations. Further, in the early 1980's, Generation replaced their old injection molding tooling, and the voicing changed somewhat. The vintage, pre-1980's voicing is considered superior, and existing examples of good pre-1980's Generations are sought after and prized. It's been the habit of devoted players to routinely try every Generation whistle in every music store they visit hoping to find that once-in-decades "perfect" Generation. Similarly, there has been a long tradition of tweaking to correct the shortcomings and optimize the voicing and handling. Freeman tweaked Generations are expertly adjusted to produce a remarkably clean playing, beautiful sounding, well in tune instrument that's well balanced throughout both registers. They are voiced to match the sought after pre-1980's voicing, which is a little sweeter/purer than current Generations, but with more complexity/reediness than a Freeman Mellow Dog or Blackbird. Freeman tweaked Generations are fully tunable, with the whistlehead moveable on the tonebody to raise or lower the pitch as needed. Tweaked Generations are available in brass or nickel plate in the keys of high G, high F, Eb, D, C, and Bb. The various keys are available individually or in complete tweaked Generation sets of whistles in all six keys. ## Features - Beloved Generation sound without the squeaks, register breaks, and out-of-tune notes. - The newer model features an attractive brass ring around the base of the mouthpiece to improve durability and prevent cracking when the whistle is tuned (updated pictures coming soon!) - Jerry Freeman expertly tweaks mass-produced whistles to improve quality and produce a clean playing, beautiful sounding, nicely in-tune instrument that's well balanced throughout both registers. ## Images ![Freeman Tweaked Generation Brass D Whistle - NEW 2013 Model - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41aRn4-yroL.jpg) ![Freeman Tweaked Generation Brass D Whistle - NEW 2013 Model - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51lLGrWItjL.jpg) ![Freeman Tweaked Generation Brass D Whistle - NEW 2013 Model - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51w1HzXCgXL.jpg) ![Freeman Tweaked Generation Brass D Whistle - NEW 2013 Model - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51LcbD2+5-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tweeted Generation Pennywhistle. *by S***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2017* This is a tweaked Generation whistle. It is softer sounding than the standard whistles are. Fun to have both. It slunds more like the Dixon, a bit softer, especially in the second octave. I don't drive the neighborhood cats quite as crazy with this one. These are good cheap whistles either way , and it's always a matter of personal preference with them, anyway. But it is as advertised, and works well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great whistle. *by B***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2016* This is a great whistle. It is right on A440 and is accurate throughout the scale. I love the sound and how little air it takes compared to my other whistles. Squeaks are minimal. It is a softer whistle than I am used to so I sometimes push it too hard to get more volume. However, I can get nuances on this whistle that my other (more expensive) whistle doesn't give me -- and this is possibly due to the lower air requirement. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth the extra money *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2016* Jerry Freeman clearly knows what he's doing. This is a very nice sounding and easy to play whistle. Much more so that any mass produced brass whistle I've ever played. From now on, the only Generation whistles I will buy are ones that have been tweaked by Jerry Freeman. This one was definitely worth the higher cost. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/18794345-freeman-tweaked-generation-brass-d-whistle-new-2013-model](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/18794345-freeman-tweaked-generation-brass-d-whistle-new-2013-model) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-09-27*
