Re: Do Brian McNamara & Cillain Vallely make their own reeds

Re: Lives of the pipers- piper biography additions

This is the last of the performer/player biographies. Next comes pipemakers in North America before 1950, probably in a different format. Lives of the Pipers Nick Whitmer What a fantastic resource. So well researched and presented. Thanks for all your hard work on this, Nick. Looking forward to rea...

Re: Border pipes taking a lot of air...

They take more air than smallpipes, but leaking like a sieve? No, that's not normal. Plug everything up (drones, chanter stock), check for leaks.

Re: humidity control

A cigar loving friend turned me on to these last year and I used them over this past winter. I shoved some in the bag of a few various sets, but like Nate, as soon as the air was moving through they were less helpful. So I continued to use my tried and tested sponge methods. However I did find use f...

Re: Eugene Lambe - Trip to Fanore and other recordiongs

Like I said, I have it on CD from Eugene, so yes, he has it digitized. It's nothing fancy, basically just a burned CD from his computer and CD sleeve, but it does the trick and is a fairly clean recording in terms of the conversion. Some good tunes on the album, well worth having in the collection.

Concertina recommendations for a child- Wren 2?

My girlfriend is looking to buy a concertina for her son to begin learning on. She's done a bit of research and from what she read the 'Wren 2' seemed like a good option for the price and ease of usage for a child. Can anyone offer an opinion on them or something in a comparable price range that wou...

FT- P. Hunter 4 key ebony D chanter

I put this chanter up for sale in the summer when money was tight. I weathered the financial storm, so now I'm looking for a potential trade. I'm interested in trading for a flat chanter or flute. I'd possibly consider another concert pitch chanter from the right maker or items related to border pip...
