The Kintyre is a new design of long practice chanter developed by Stuart and Willie McCallum.
The Kintyre practice chanter boasts a beautiful clear tone and the sound lasts much longer as a result of the innovative watertrap incorporated in the top piece. If emptied on a regualr basis, it will give hours of uninterrupted practice.
Willie Mccallum describes it as “the only long practice chanter I have played that feels like a pipe chanter”, thereby making the transition much easier. It’s unique hole design is a huge step forward in improving finger work.
Includes a practice chanter reed.
The McCallum Rucksack pipe case is a very light weight padded bagpipe case.
It incorporates storage for your accessories with one outside pocket. You have the option of carrying this case via two heavy duty nylon handles or as a back pack with two adjustable straps. Great value for a case to transport your pipes from practices to competitions.
The Pipers Pal is an excellent product that offers reed protection and humidity control. It will not only make your reed last longer and more stable but also easier to break in.
This update to the original reed protector incorporates an indicator on top of the protector that visually aids you in ensuring your read protector is operating at optimum conditions.
