The Acme orchestral siren was originally a ‘cyclist’s road clearer’ in the 1880s but now has a variety of applications, including use in professional orchestras. This high-quality horn projects with an unmistakable sound and would make a great addition to any percussionist’s kit bag. Crafted with precision and care, the orchestral siren is a reliable instrument which still proves popular today.
With a 7” bell piece, this whistle projects with a vibrant and powerful tone that is more than double the loudness of the PP164 small siren.
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.
