Vpipes
FS is my set of Vpipes. They are loaded with approx 200 midi files by Ramone De Castro. They are about 2 years old but like new. Play perfectly and are very sensitive to play... You have a great deal of lea way on how to personalize . Can play through headphones or amplify. These are amazing Uilleanne electronic pipes and usually take a year or so wait time to acquire. I am in Canada so I would want $2000 Canadian for them ONO. They were considerably more than this by the time they are delivered. Any questions ... just ask. Sept. 2019. These rarely come up.

- Tell us something.: I am a walrus, I am a tea pot. John Lennon said that but people see him as a guru. Well,tell,you what he also almost became a piper asking Paddy Keenan to teach him. (bleep) got bored & went on the sitar and the rest is history.

Re: Vpipes
I will say that without my V pipes I probably would not be progressing at all in learning pipes. With work, family etc it is hard to find times to practice in the week for me. The V pipes with headphones allow me to practice daily and keep my hand in. If you are in similar circumstances, I think you’ll never look back once you get a set.

Re: Vpipes
Yes they are great fun and great private practice without disturbing anyone. I have also played them in the put through an amp with fiddles and piano . They sound great without any tuning issues and are always ready to play on cue. The only reason for selling them is I have two sets of Uillean Pipes and would like to invest in a set of Fred Morrison Reel pipes, thus the Vpipes are for sale. Will miss them but there is always another set around the corner.

Re: Vpipes
Thank you all. They are sold to a house where the piper is expecting a young un and wishes to quietly practice. I know they will be loved.
