Pipes for sale: 3/4 Britton Set in D. Sold.

I have a Tim Britton 3/4 set in D for sale. The set is made of rosewood (except for the stocks) and is very lightweight. The chanter has four keys and a metal top, no stop key. The metalwork is brass. This set has a number of “extras”: an “A” drone with a separate switch in addition to the normal 3 drones, and an “E” key on the baritone regulator between the “D” and the “F#” keys. Some of the tenons use cork for the seals, and some have waxed thread.

My asking price is $6000 plus shipping and insurance, which is about 1/3 off of what a new 3/4 set with these options would cost new from Tim.

Please send me a private message if interested.

Steve- what's with the 2nd drone switch?? Ii was wondering if you had sold this.

Edited: Just read the description on UP obsession page. 2nd switch is for fourth drone.

Hey Steve,

If you haven't sold that Britton set by the Tionol, would you mind bringing it along? I'd love to have a toot on it! Thanks very much...hope all is well!
