One big advantage with a car-instrument is having it a bright colour. I have my red Practice Chanter and I used to have a red anodised aluminium MK Low D whistle. Why? Because if you're sitting in your parked car practicing on a black or silver chanter or whistle it can be mistaken for a weapon by police. Sad I know, but it's the world we live in.
Good advice! I don't want to be mistaken for a sniper!
