This is a used 1/2 Set John Pederson (of AMAZING GRACE MUSIC in St. Anselmo, CA) uillean bagpipes in the key of D.  They come with a chanter reed and Ezeedrone drone reeds.  These pipes were made in 1983 and they need TLC (gluing, hemping, reed tweeking).  The main issue is loose ferrules that will need to be glued and the mechanical popping valve pin wants to come loose after heavy playing.  All mechanical parts are functioning and they are airtight.  Please see the photos of the letter written by John Pederson to the original owner (I am the second owner) for the description.  It looks like they have:
