C# Full set made by Alain Froment in 2001. Fully keyed chanter, 3 regulators and 4 drones (extra 5th)
New L&M bag.
1938 Indian ebony and real ivory, hand-forged keys and in perfect playing condition.
A great oppertunity to buy a spendid set made by the late Alain Froment.
As I have somebody special who looks for a solution to get these pipes, I don’t make any replies for the moment.

I am so hoping against hope that the original owner gets them back. Very very generous of you to go that avenue first.

I would be too…if I was the original owner! 
Hi all,
I got an answer of the previous owner, pitty he couldn’t buy them. The pipes are for sale now. Price 12500 euro or nearest offer.

It’s a lot of money, I know. I also was thinking this to when I bought them. But they are it worth. The pipes are located in Belgium.
So if someone is interested, contact me by mail (see below), no p/m please.

And what appears to be a 4th regulator thrown in for free.
Steve
I think you’re looking at the 4th drone which is pitched a 5th above the 3 other drones (i.e. G# or, in terms of a D set, A).
PJ, you’re right. Duh.
A better pic:
Nicely played. It’s a great sounding set.
I found someone who is very interested and wants to buy them. So when all is arranged its sold.
Patrick
That was fast and with a lot of mails all over the world.
