I got to unbox a FULL SET of Galloway uilleann pipes! Absolutely stunning set made from ebony and mounted in purpleheart and brass. Thought folks here may want to see this... Many thanks to my friend Nick for letting me unbox them on camera for everyone! https://youtu.be/X24CTwYr--0

For a full set I'm surprised it didn't come with a case. Great workmanship but the purple heart wouldn't be my cup of tea.Will you be posting a clip of the set in full flight?

Tell us something.: If you flush your toilet 7 times whilst lilting "The Bucks of Oranmore", an apparition of one of the great pipers of old will appear in the mirror, you will be blessed with good reeds, but cursed with bad bags and bellows.

Instrument unboxing videos are always satisfying congratulations
We musicians are enemies by disposition, so treat every musician you happen to meet, accordingly.
