You want loud ? try a Bombard !!

Nice English pipes there


My brother's got a set, sort of, chanters a modified Shaw bombard, Drone is by Swain and the bag was made by Goodacre*. its a Frankenstein-bagpipe

Julian Goodacre's bagpipes are lovely, but a tad expensive for my pocket.

I got mine from Ian Corrigan of Deerness Pipes. Ian is well up for trade and barter and so these didn't cost me a penny in cash. A leather tankard, a tooled leather flask, a few favours here and there and some red deer antler. I made the bag and Ian did the rest.

Here's Ian at work.
