I popped the fipple off of my Clarke Sweetone the other night and discovered that it was rusting at the top of the seam! This was a bit surprising, since it's only a month old or so, but I guess I just need to become religious about wiping down condensation inside the tube after I play. Maybe the painted whistles (I have the "natural" finish) are a bit more rust-resilient.
The title link goes to a tune I found appropriate for this post.
