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."

The Ross bag has a suede-like, red exterior that offers good grip and, plus vibrance and harmonics. It's heavier than most synthetic bags, but lighter than hybrids. The bag requires no seasoning and is virtually maintenance free. Plus, it's more hygienic and has a longer lifespan than most hide bags. The zipper is easier to pull and requires only a dab of lubricant at the end. The zipper is angled for minimum contact with your arm.

Installation Tip:  Over-tightening the clamp can damage the chanter stock.

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.
