Hi there,

I know, I have posted a week before, but I’ve now definitely decided to part with my piping stuff and move on, so here it is for you to consider.

The following items are for sale (see below for photos and sound samples, and excuse my lousy playing):

  1. Andreas Rogge Delrin chanter in concert D (wide bore), with nicely working reed. Loud chanter, plays effortlessly. Has a scratch below back D hole (see photo). Price 250€ o.b.o.
    Here is a sound sample: click

  2. C chanter made of madagascar rosewood, holly mounts, hand-rolled brass ferrules. The wood has a lovely light smell to it, reminds me of roses (it’s rosewood, after all). Mounted for five keys (I think). This chanter has been made by me according to the design of a pipemaker I spent some time with. The reed also has been made by me. It is a bit stiff but works nicely. You might want some experienced reedmaker to make another reed if the one that comes with the chanter doesn’t suit you. Price is 550€ o.b.o.

  3. Andreas Rogge bellows. Comes with a belt. This is his deluxe version that goes for 400€. I want 300€ o.b.o.

  4. Bellows made by me. Rosewood clappers, hand-stitched leather. Simple leather string hinge. Brass parts all done by hand from sheet. Very compact and works nicely. Was a hell of work to make. Price 250€ o.b.o.

  5. Andreas Rogge leather bag with chanter stock and bellows inlet. Soft burgundy leather, ebony (or maybe blackwood) and boxwood mounts. Chanter stock inner diameter is 12mm. Airtight. Lovely thing it is. Price 80€ o.b.o.

  6. Bag made by me. It is hand stitched, but the leather is dirty and it could use a seasoning. Leather is very stiff. Some people seem to like it that way. Comes with stocks and blowpipe made of knotty walnut, hand-stitched leather tube. Chanter stock made from lignum vitae and not visible in the photos. Inner diameter 10mm. Goes away for 35€.

As the items actually make two practise sets, I’ll sell them together as practise sets with some discount…Rogge set: 600€, C set: 750€.

Here are the photos…

Let me know if you need more photos. Also feel free to make offers, and I might even fancy a (partial) trade. I’m looking for a nice low F whistle or french bagpipes, for example.

Please contact me via private message or email.

Cheers,
Gabriel

Everything sold save the C chanter made by me, which is still available. Remember that I’ll entertain offers and trades. Ah, and the poor white bag is also still here.
