This is a set that I had made several years ago. African Blackwood/imitation ivory, set up to be either bellows or mouth blown. I should point out that the bellows option is not the common Walsh optional bellows "adapter", but a proper bellows stock mounted in the bag itself. There is a st...

I almost forgot...I had Lynn at The House of Bagpipes tie in a new L&M hide bag a while back. No more floppy Goretex.

Another vote for Reyburn. I love mine, I wound up with both a brass and an aluminum, couldn't decide which sound I liked best. :poke: They are very different in timbre, but both play in tune and are lovely in their own way. I'd describe the air requirements as easy to medium, although the aluminum o...

Agreed. Very good service and excellent whistles. His aluminum low D is nothing short of fantastic. Got to agree...I have both a brass and an aluminum low D from Ronaldo.

I believe that Kelischek workshop (Susato) will add a bushing to the thumb hole. As mentioned above this is a common repair.

Hello back at you...and welcome to the community. Sounds like you just need to get out there and join in with the local session(s). Confidence only comes with time in the saddle! Although a pint of Guinness or two couldn't hurt! Neat that you got to play with Ms. Madden and meet Gene, both are great...
