    Description

    Piob Mhor Blackwood Scottish Bagpipes Bundle.
    Set of Great Highland Bagpipes made from African Blackwood. Stamped - 488 Piob Mhor - on nearly every drone stock and slide. Made in Scotland; see this page for more info on the makers:

    The plastic "ivory" mounts are old and some have cracks developing in them. Some of the stocks also have a few hairline cracks, particularly 2 on the chanter stock and 1 on the bass drone reed seat. The blow pipe is particularly bad, so there is a "maxistick" plastic blowpipe from RG Hardie to replace it.
    I played these pipes for the last 6 years and tried my best to care for them with regular swabbing and use of bore oil.
    The sticks and stocks come with a Begg Cowhide bag size small. It was seasoned not too long ago before I switched it out for a bannatyne hybrid bag. There is a good 3/4 full bottle of seasoning included.
    Ezee drone reeds are also included, although one tenor drone doesn't work.
    The cover and cords are Royal Stuart
