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.

The Dunbar long practice chanter is a quality practice chanter from J. Dunbar Bagpipes, pioneers in Polypenco bagpipe products. The Dunbar long is sort of an extra long chanter, as it's a bit longer than other long chanters. It has very good intonation and achieves great volume with a Gibson reed. Dunbar chanters are made in St Catherines, Ontario, Canada.

This light-blowing practice reed is a great fit for most chanters and a customer favorite. This reed also pairs well with older wooden chanters and UK-made chanters.

We believe a great reed should be easy to find. We store and select reeds with care. For pipe chanter and practice chanter reed details and compatibility, see our Reed Chart.

SM90s are designed especially for Shepherd bagpipes. Blade and bridle position are pre-set for quick and simple installation. Instructions are provided on a convenient laminated card. Your reeds will come with white plastic spacers with a slit. The spacers prevent the reeds from telescoping in when you seat them in your drones, but they can also be removed.

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.
