Yes looks like set made by Robbie Hughes or similar maker Brendan O' Hare and maybe bellows by Jackie Boyce. If you search on uilleann pipes obsession for Robbie Hughes or Brendan O'Hare you see sold pipes with similar looking pipes and bellows. The Mainstock look like has no drone switch and the br...

Vintage Scottish Smallpipes With Bellows (Not Sure If Complete)

I have messaged the seller.

Definitely not a set of Scottish smallpipes.

I’m curious and interested to know, did Williams base his pipes off of another maker like a Rowsome or Taylor or Crowley? Or was it an original design? I have a booklet printed by the NPU many years ago called "Uilleann pipes a listing of makers" so longer in print. Dave Williams is liste...

The oldest reed I have and first reed still playing in my Andreas Rogge C Plumwood chanter dates backs to when chanter was made December 2008. Reed my A Rogge.

Only a few wee adjustments over the years need for this C reed.
