THE best set of border pipes money can buy. Rolls Royce in the bagpipes world. 5 drone set of Scottish Border pipes, bellows blown, Uilleann Configuration (drones rest on the lap) Alto, Tenor, Baritone, Bass, and the all important Contra-bass (a whole octave lower than bass!) Mesquite wood with dark horn mounts and brass fittings. Gorgeous, deep, rich, dark chocolatey tone. Beautifully scalloped chanter, so comfortable, and easy to find the holes.
Banton&Woodsons books are now closed for these, years of a waiting list, and he told me if they ever did open again they would retail for around $8000. These pipes are now very sought after and are as rare as hens teeth. He also told me he would stand over his older sets and overhaul, and maintain the pipes if needed for you – but it’s not needed. They are in fine, plug-in-and-play condition. Zero problems with them. Please see the youtube video for more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADGzDb3Qzl4
Also please just youtube Banton Woodson Border Pipes for loads of videos demonstrating this style of set, as I don’t do them justice (I’m an Uilleann learner) So I’ve put links under my own video.
Also works great with a smallpipe chanter, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCMcCcigXXs
No time-wasters please, I’ve already had 3 people mess me around for months now. No bellows provided, but I will ship with a long hard padded case for best protection. Buyer pays shipping. You can email me at [email protected]
I’m on Whattasp, and Paypal. First in with the money and the pipes are gone!
These are the last set of Border pipes, you’ll ever need – doesn’t get any better than this.
Thanks!
