McCallum Folk Pipes
The Folk Pipes have been designed by McCallum Bagpipes to play along with other instruments, allowing the piper to use a blowing and bag pressure technique as they would with the Highland pipes. 
The low A note on the chanter is tuned to concert pitch A (440Hz) which means that the pipes will naturally play in the keys used by other musicians when playing traditional/folk music. The pipes come set-up, ready to play with covers and cords, a synthetic bag, moisture control system, chanter reed and synthetic drone reeds.Waiting List for these popular pipes can be between 4-12 weeks

McCallum Plastic Pipe Chanter
McCallum Bagpipes pipe chanters are manufactured from Polypenco. These instruments are a quality product producing a true tone for the discerning ear. Each chanter carries the McCallum Bagpipes marking, your guarantee of workmanship to the highest standards.
There is a thread on the reed 
seat of all chanters (except 
C4) which alleviates the 
problems of the reed coming 
loose, especially on the plastic 
chanter in dry conditions. This 
locks the reed in place until 
adjusted by the piper. it’s also a much more 
accurate way of setting the 
chanter reed pitch.
You turn the reed clockwise 
to sink the reed and sharpen it, 
and the anti-clockwise to raise 
it and sharpen it. The standard pipe Chanter 
(C1, C2) is played by pipe bands 
worldwide, including many of the 
top grade 1 bands. in addition, 
it is also played by many top 
soloists and has won almost 
every top piping award.
