All Uilleann Pipes, All the Time

It is a musette. This name is later than the one attached to the bagpipe. It is a french folk instrument. I have one and it takes a modified oboe reed to play it. You need only cut off about 1/3 of the staple length and slightly sand the cork to fit into the reed socket. A friend has a large collect...

Sorry about double post.

I prefer the look of nickel-silver to sterling. It is more damage resistant. I don't mind keeping it polished. There are different alloys of brass as well, which exhibit better and worse looking tarnishes. I don't like the look of stainless steel or chrome plating.

Somewhere I have a tape of Ronnie playing the set in breaks during a long poem he wrote about Geoff Wooff. I have a couple more photos of that set. Seeing the inspired my ordering a set from Geoff which had the same regulator caps.
