Bohemian Bagpipes "Hvězda svítí nad Betlémem"

A set of Bohemian pipes in E flat major, made by master Lubomír Jungbauer from Stod near Pilsen.

Jungbauer's instruments have tuning screws in each hole, so the tuning of the instrument can be very accurat. The drone is very short, the low tone is produced by a special air flow system - it is also tunable by a screw, placed in the drone stock.

Is the drone folded like the older Bach Pipes? I love the sound of the EFlat pipe! How much would one of those pipes cost?

[vereno1986]

@Willsparks58 It's actually built in a unique manner used only by master Jungbauer. The reed is positioned ca. 35cm away from the end of the drone. The rest is just a very long stock which somehow causes the reed to sound that deep. If you take the drone out of the stock an play it in your mouth, it will sound c. It's only functioning when fully assembled. A set of Jungbauer pipes is around 600 - 700 euro, as far as I know.

Nice playing, as always. How does the tuning screw work?

[vereno1986]

Thanks!

The tuning screw regulates the airflow to the drone reed. The less air, the deeper the tone.

Cool! Interesting tuning system for those pipes! Price sounds about right for those pipes with that air flow system. EFlat is my favorite key by the way.

is it dog or goat or something like that?

Sehr toll...Vor allem sehr toll dass du soviele verschiedene Säcke vorführst, so kann man auch mal die nicht so alltäglichen sehen.

Very nice...especially nice that you present that many bagpipes,so that people can see the pipes which you don't see every day
