Tony Dixon Music is a family-run maker of traditional whistles and flutes based in Bideford, Devon, England. Founded by flute player Tony Dixon in 1997, the company hand-finishes each instrument in its own workshop and has built a reputation within the Irish and folk music community for offering playable, affordable instruments across a wide range of price points.
The catalogue spans tin whistles, low whistles, and simple-system flutes in materials including polymer, aluminium, brass, and cupro-nickel. Well-known models include the tuneable polymer low D whistle (TB012), the tuneable aluminium D whistle (DX006), the nickel-slide tuneable D whistle (DX005), and the Trad cupro-nickel D whistle, along with interchangeable whistle-and-flute sets that let players swap heads across different keys on a shared body.
Dixon instruments are widely distributed through specialist retailers such as McNeela Music, Hobgoblin Music, Lark in the Morning, and Clarke's, and are often recommended as step-up options for students moving beyond entry-level whistles as well as working instruments for session and stage players of Irish traditional music.
Tony Dixon has 6 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Whistles.
