(Before the double stock and extra drone was added, along with the D/G chanter.)
Just a note: These are bagpipes. Pretty rare ones at that. If you don't know what you're getting into, don't bid please. They will come with several cane reeds and the A chanter is reeded with a Hamon synthetic reed. The long drone has a Hamon synthetic reed in it as well. I'll throw in a Hamon synthetic reed for the D/G chanter and do a quick tune on it if requested before sending, but it's set up for a cane reed at the moment. The short drone is cane at the moment but I will send a custom made reed body for it out of blackwood, you can slap a styrene or other plastic tongue or whatever on, I just haven't taken the time to fix it since I bent the last one in half dorking with it. Faust has cane reeds available for every bore in this set, but I'm not sure what he's doing in the way of synthetics. He's a live, working maker and quite available for service and supplies. Thanks.
