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.

Naill's Poly Band Chanter is a version of Naill's Poly Chanter, redesigned specifically for pipe band use. The Poly chanter was rebalanced with expert input from Simon Fraser University Pipe Band's Terry and Jack Lee. The result is a louder chanter with a slightly higher pitch than the solo Poly version. Naill chanters are made in England by David Naill & Co.

MG Carbon reeds are designed to deliver stability and tone and have been nicknamed White Mambas. The plastic bodies and carbon fiber tongues help play through moisture. The powerful sound of carbon fiber is softened in the tenors, with a specially shaped tongue. This results in better balance between bass and tenors. Designed and manufactured by Rory Grosart, in partnership with McCallum Bagpipes.

The Gibson Long Poly practice chanter is the top choice for teens and adults learning to play. It has been engineered to achieve great balance and pitch, and it is very comfortable to play.

Gold Wool Necktie The Gold tie gives a distinctive look and works with tartans with gold tones. Neckties are part of the Highlander Collection from Lochcarron of Scotland. These look great when worn by pipers and pipe bands with an Argyle jacket and/or a 5 button vest.
