FS: Christopher Bayley 1/2 Set in D

Post by danvidler »

Chanter, bag and bellows bought as practise set and 3 drones added later.

Ebony chanter has C nat key and blocks for other keys to be added.

Brass and imitation ivory trim throughout.

Chanter reed by Alan Burton, synthetic drone reeds by Eezeedrone.

This is a lovely set of pipes with a clear tone to the chanter in both octaves. They have served me very well for 11 years of piping and would suit beginner/intermediate player.

Elbow and hip pads on bellows are simple foam and could do with replacing - not glamorous but they do work!

Baritone drone has a slight crack where reed sits and has been fixed (by me) using yellow Sugru to keep the reed permanently in place (see close up photo). This drone plays slightly less smoothly than the others, which play very consistently.

£2000 + shipping costs (from Somerset, UK)

Dropbox no longer seems to have 'public' folders. To aid your effort to sell, you need you make you photos public. Perhaps Photo Bucket?
