On this set, real nickel ferrules, slides, and ring caps are engraved with the Dot Knot pattern. The pattern has an elegant look, but is also the basis for the Red Hot Chilli Pipers sets, making it fresh and widely appealing. The imitation ivory projecting mounts have a marbled appearance, while the bulb on the mouthpiece has a solid tone. A multi-step finishing process gives Wallace bagpipes a beautiful luster. Each set of Wallace pipes is about 95% hand-crafted and has a unique serial number. Made in Scotland.

The Hardie Poly bagpipe is a very reliable performance instrument, with good drone stability. Imitation ivory mounts make it a very durable bagpipe that's easy to keep looking great. We upgrade the sets we stock with an Adjusti-Stik adjustable blowpipe, so you get a comfortable custom fit. Another upgraded feature is an Infinity pipe chanter, which boasts slightly smaller, more comfortable holes. For many pipers, the smaller holes make their movements sound cleaner, and the sound is excellent, easily blended in a modern pipe band. The pipes are crafted in Glasgow, Scotland by RG Hardie, an enduring name in pipemaking.

Gibson Polypenco Firesides with Brass
Firesides in the key of "A" are most compatible with guitars, fiddles and whistles. If you're thinking about playing  in a Celtic Folk group, the "A" model is your best choice.  The "A" chanter has a slightly wider finger spread on the lower notes than the "Bflat." Firesides are our top-selling smallpipes and have earned this title for their appearance, ease of maintenance, and quality Gibson tone. If you already play the Great Highland Pipes, you will find transitioning to the Firesides relatively easy. A baritone drone, instead of the second tenor on the Highland pipes, adds another dimension of sound.  The Firesides are a great value!  Made in the U.S.A.
Features of the Gibson Poly Firesides:
  • Durable Poly instrument
  • Can go anywhere, including across international borders without issue
  • No slender wood tuning pins
  • Very nice look with brass accents
  • Synthetic pipe bag (one size fits all)
  • Full set of long-lasting plastic reeds
  • Bag cover (color as supplied by Gibson)
  • Silk cord
  • Change the key: Purchase a "B flat" Firesides chanter and reed set, and you'll have an "Bflat" set, too.
