Apps G3 Pipe Chanter Reeds

 

The well-established Apps G3 reeds are available in multiple strengths and are compatible with a wide range of pipe chanters. The Apps G3 Reeds is a standard slope-style reed, while the G4 reed is shoulder cut. Designed in cooperation with David Naill & Co., the reeds are a great match for the Naill range of chanters. Apps Reeds are made by Chris Apps in the US.

 

The Apps Reedmaking Process: "The Apps G3 bagpipe chanter reed is cut with a CNC mill and hand finished by Chris Apps. The technology ensures uniformity while the hand finish guarantees quality. The folded brass staple ensures each reed has a powerful, stable top hand and projects plenty of volume. This staple is also key to our perfect piobaireachd high G."
