  • LOL Pakistan.

  • 9 grand?! u shoulda went to maccallums

  • @omlee26 hey man,

    well my aunt went to scotland, i told her to get me a bagpipe, but she brought a very small one...

    i tried to play on it, but there was no actual sound...i dunno if it's from me or the bagpipe.

    just wanted to know a little more about ur bagpipe that u mentioned (the small one from wood and plastic)

  • I just got my first set of pipes yesterday. I got a set of Cushing GHB-2's in Delrin and even though I don't know how to play and have had my practice chanter for almost a year, I envision myself as an accomplished player. As a former hockey-skating instructor I know full well the basic principals needed to accomplish any new task and look forward with great anticipation to bellowing out my first, real song on my new pipes. Thanks for posting your vids and helping me along on this new journey.

  • Unless you just want to fool around with them and see if you like them (and try to annoy your wife :). Then get the ones from pakistan.

  • I've been talking with Scruffy Wallace of the Dropkick Murphys... Is that good enough?

  • @brooklynNY9999 'Scotch" is a drink...the word is 'Scots"

  • well i have some bag pipes and I have no clue where they came from but they are way smaller than those and mostly wood and plastic... im pretty sure they are crap but i can get noise out of them and it's not too bad

  • there are actually some good paki pipes ....when they are corrected by a pipe maker :)

  • you should never spend that much money on an instrument your just learning, start off with cheap and simple and work your way up
