hey Uilliam,
I don't think my maple Lynch chanter needed re-boring because it was maple so much as becasue it was Kirk's second chanter. I imagine that it sits pretty low down on his learning curve. It is suitable as a backup practice stick, but that's about it. I kinda like the old thing though..... It's got a history and I find that appealing. I plan on starting my son up on the pipes in the future and it will probably be his first stick (mainly because the reed is so easy and it is light)

I'm in the midwest also, Kansas City. And yes I have had reed problems, but I'm not so sure it was the reeds fault as my inability to leave well enough alone. I am an inveterate tinkerer. The schizophrenic humdity changes here drive me crazy.
I now make my own reeds (after I cracked my orginal reed) - and Davy was very helpful with this also.
