Taylor Style Uilleann Pipes Practice Set in Concert D This is a fully keyed Practice Set of Uilleann Pipes in the key of D, playing at A=440Hz. The chanter was made, by me, from Palo Santo, with brass keywork and ferrules, and imitation horn mounts. A matching wooden headpiece is fitted. It is fully keyed, with keys for F natural, G sharp, B flat and High C natural. It plays in tune throughout its' full two octaves, with the second octave being easy to achieve and maintain. It has a bright but mellow responsive tone and is set to play at a medium pressure. Two reeds are included with the set, and further reeds are available from me. The leather bag is brand new, made by Kelleher Trad and is airtight. The bellows, by me, has an ornamental air inlet to prevent sleeves from being sucked in, and is fitted with two comfortable leather pads which makes playing for long periods very easy. The blowpipe is detachable for stowing in smaller cases. Please contact me for sound files. Postage and insurance will be charged at cost.  Please note that imports of bagpipes into the United States is free of Customs Duty, and I am happy to complete the necessary paperwork.
