    I am loving Henderson's!!!!!! I was dealing with Katie on my order. She was really friendly, and helpful. My pipes came well tuned, and ready to go out of the box. I ordered the very basic McCallum pipes. I have had Dunbars since 1997, and these are way better! Thanks to the person that set them up. The included Henderson sticker went right on my hardhat. I'm a union Ironworker.
    I look forward to calling Katie in the future for some new reeds, maybe a new practice chanter, or to just ask for tips on new products.
    Thank you to the Henderson family.

    I hope I will be able to buy soon. My first clarinet was poly. great for being a rough and tumble kid. I bought my first African blackwood clarinet in college. I use the poly outside, blackeood inside. Will probably buy a set of poly pipes to learn on as well.

    Played David Naiel pipes in the in early 80s imported by a fella named Mc McPherson. My pipe major Richard Longstaff owned a set of Henderson pipes he purchased from his teacher who had fought in the boer war. The pipes were top shelf! Silver and real ivory trimmed. They were heavy!! Richard liked the naiel pipes and felt the chanter was very good. Those Hendersons were later sold to Richard's best student jamie...who played world over. Nothing ever matched the sweet tone of those boer War hendersons...later I purchased a set of Dunbar poly pipes ancient model. Never could really get them going...sold them to a fella in Oregon...he loved them!

      Do it!!!!! Hassle free out of the box. I've been playing 23 years, and the poly were the best investment. For a few hundred dollars, and about 5 minutes tuning, they are in the car ready for any occasion. How often are you at work, or a party, etc. and it comes up that you play?

    @nancyirwin3150 Před 2 lety

    So far out of all of the bagpipes that I have heard, the only really one that I have noticed a difference in the drones are a set of nail bagpipes. My teacher has a set of those in his drones sounded very different from everybody else in the band. It seems to me that all the pipe chanters sound the same. So if they all sound the same, how do you know which bagpipes or to choose? They all sound the same to me. Any advice as to good comparison videos I could look at?

      You need bag seasoning. Pipes need it a few times a year. Look up on here how to Season bagpipes. You would be better off getting a synthetic bag. (Bannatyne)
