1985 set of African Blackwood, fully combed and beaded, Kintail bagpipes for sale. Pipes are in excellent condition and have only had (3) owners. Current owner has been playing them for 15 years. All owners have been band members/experienced pipers. Decided to sell them because I got a new set of pipes and am not playing them as much.
Pipes have imitation ivory mounts, ferrules, caps, and come with Collared Gannoway Zipper leather bag (med.) purchased in 2019 and still like new, highlander pipe bag dressing, balance tone drone reeds (standard), and original blowpipe and chanter.
Only repair was made 5 years ago to middle tenor tuning pin (small crack – see photos). Repairs were performed by House of Bagpipes (CA.), by inserting a metal sleeve. Have had no issues since with air loss, performance etc.
This would make a great first set for beginning pipers! Buyer to pay shipping. Sold as is, no returns.
