African blackwood pipe chanter for sale (engraved “Grainger” below top shoulder section) with catalin sole, believed to be circa late 1980s. No carving, no visible damage whatever. Very slight bowing which does not affect performance, visible on close inspection of second photo. Snugly inserting a reed in this chanter will pitch low A at about 468 Hz. Reed seat is 7mm in diameter vs. most contemporary chanters at 8mm, so hemp can be removed or the reed seat can be reamed a little to let reeds be seated deeper and bring up the pitch, if desired. Otherwise, for a solo piper who prefers the lower pitches at which we used to tune, this is for you! Double click on each truncated thumbnail pic to expand it to full size.
