Getting rid of my Gibson Firesides. I have loved these things but I recently leveled up. They have been well taken care of!
Gibson Cocobolo Firesides in A
Firesides in the key of “A” are most compatible with guitars, fiddles and whistles. If you’re thinking about playing in a Celtic Folk group, the “A” model is your best choice. The “A” chanter has a slightly wider finger spread on the lower notes than the “Bflat.” Firesides are our top-selling smallpipes and have earned this title for their appearance, ease of maintenance, and quality Gibson tone. If you already play the Great Highland Pipes, you will find transitioning to the Firesides relatively easy. A baritone drone, instead of the second tenor on the Highland pipes, adds another dimension of sound. The Firesides are a great value! Made in the U.S.A.
