Wanted: Full Set in D - Australia

Post by aidanr »

Hi,

I live in Melbourne and Ive got a practise set ive been playing for years. Im looking to invest in a full set in D either new or 2nd hand in perfect working order. For info i have played other sets with drones and
regs and am comfortable using them. Im not interested in half sets, just a complete full set.

So i have a few questions:

Can anyone recommend or know of makers in Australia?

Outside Australia can you recommend some established reputable makers that would have a relatively short lead time and are familiar with international shipping?

Anyone have a 2nd hand excellent condition full set in D for sale?

Thank you
irishmuse

Including contact details for Australian player/ maker David Goldsworthy who posts here as Ausdag
Beautiful sets, some in native Aussie woods.

Hope this helps. Best of luck with your search

I imagine he's talking about the uilleann pipers australia facebook group, specifically this post on June 5.

I know Jack Brennan in South Australia has recently started making sets, but I don't think he's made a full set yet, he's still working on mainly practice sets at the moment.
