  • Hey Bobby, on the d-e-a-a part, are you just sustaining the a note? Seems youd need a grace between the double a note to actually achieve that. Am I missing something? And please don't say,"Yeah, a brain!" LOL!

  • @ralphsneakers I would never say that. Just throw a High G grace note between the High A's to break them up.

  • Yes, it is a lot. So much so that I can't even come close to hitting his notes on my chanter. I'm hitting the notes you played tho.... Thanks for the reply!

  • @BronzeGargoyle On your practice chanter or pipe chanter?

  • I am new to the bagpipes. Why are your notes an octave lower than the original? Did Bon Scott have a different type of bagpipes? Nice video!

  • @BronzeGargoyle Bon may have had his pipes tuned differently. It's not an octave lower though. That is a lot.
