Shepherd chanters have an established history with award-winning bands and solo pipers.  This is the classic version of the Shepherd Blackwood pipe chanter.  Shepherd chanters are made in Scotland by RT Shepherd and Son.

MG Drone Reeds incorporate many of the best features available for synthetic reeds, like a stable carbon fiber bass tongue and natural tenor reed bodies. Composite reed bodies are great in Poly pipe, because they absorb the inevitable moisture. MG reeds were designed especially for use in McCallum pipes, but are compatible with many modern makes.

Designed and manufactured by Rory Grosart in partnership with McCallum Bagpipes

The Peter Henderson plastic band chanter was designed by Alastair Dunn of Field Marshal Montgomery, winners of multiple World Pipe Band Championships. The makers of the chanter indicate that it has been made "to generate a bright robust sound with maximum projection." In addition, "it produces a balance sound between all notes and is comfortable to play."

RedWood reeds get their color from Padouk wood. The carbon fiber bass tongue and glass fiber tenors produce a bass-forward sound with well balanced tenor drones. Normal moisture issues will be well managed by the absorbent natural bodies, and the carbon fiber bass tongue should help with stability in wet conditions. Made in France.

This padded drum bag offers an extra layer of protection, helping to prevent scuffs and scrapes. Two handles make maneuvering the drum easier. The case accommodates all 28 x 12, 28 x 14, and 28 x 16 drum styles we offer from Andante, Pearl, and Premier. Tuxedo bags are made by Humes & Berg.
