Northumbrian Smallpipes in F - 9 Key Chanter - African Blackwood

Northumbrian Smallpipes by Hakam Din

The chanter is made out of African Blackwood (Dalbergia Melanoxylon) with 9 nickle-plated brass keys, it has a closed bore, enabling a staccato style of playing that gives them the unique "bubbling" sound for which it is famous for. The set does not include a chanter reed. The set includes four drones, adorned with stainless steel ferrules and imitation ivory mounts. 

This is a transposing set, tuned to a little over concert F (F+) to reflect the pitch of it's era.  Best for playing solo. 

As always, the pipe bag and bellows are guaranteed to fully air tight and functional, both made using synthetic leather. (Hide leather options available)

Please note: the chanter reed is not included.

The set includes;

• 9 Key Chanter
• Bass, Baritone, Tenor and Alto Drones
• Brass Drone Reeds
• Bellows
