I think I know the Scotts Highland Service products, they're called "Piper's Choice".
https://www.scottshighland.com/product/ ... cert-pipe/The Piper's Choice things I tried (border pipes, smallpipes) were in an uncanny valley between the utterly worthless Pakistani stuff and legitimate instruments. Maybe they've improved. I wouldn't bet on it until I tried their new stuff.
If you want Scottish smallpipes that actually function, by far the best value are the things made by John Walsh in Canada. He's a fantastic piper and his instruments are prime examples of form-follows-function. For him it's all about how his instruments work (excellently) and not how they look (ugly).
He makes "shuttlepipes" and "smallpipes". The shuttlepipes have a shuttle drone, the smallpipes have traditional separate drones. The smallpipes sound better.
What's amazing and perhaps unique with John Walsh is that he "sets up" each instrument before he sends it to you, so unlike any other bagpipe his play perfectly right out of the box. That makes them ideal for beginners/newbies.
The only time I've seen John Walsh smallpipes/shuttlepipes that didn't work right is when misguided newbies mucked with the reeds. If you get a John Walsh set PLEASE don't muck with the reeds! They're perfect as they came. Anything you do will diminish or destroy their functioning.
His pipes work, play, sound as good as fancy wood pipes that cost ten times more.
Here's his site, I see he's making wood pipes now too. Before, his pipes were all black plastic which put people off (people who buy an instrument for how it looks not how it plays).
