Beginners set for Great Highland Bagpipe

Description

If you want to learn how to play the Scottish Highland Bagpipe or Smallpipe, you first need a practice flute: the Practice Chanter (PC for short). This instrument accompanies every piper – whether beginner or professional – for a lifetime. Here you get everything you need to start playing the Scottish bagpipes: A simple practice chanter of Scottish manufacture in polypenco design and the best-selling and best-proven German-language textbook by MacEge (with CD) at a super price! Made north of Edinburgh, the instrument is carefully crafted from the high-quality Polypenco plastic. The finger holes are well felt. The included plastic reed responds easily and requires little air. The simple Practice Chanter has proven its worth in bagpipe lessons in many schools in Scotland, is well tuned and easy to maintain. The renunciation of unnecessary bells and whistles allows an excellent price/performance ratio for this excellent instrument! The Practice Chanter is built in the standard length – the tone hole spacing is built so that the grip width is about 1 cm shorter than the ‘big’ chanter of the Bagpipe. This helps beginners in particular to get used to the correct hand position. We supply this practice instrument with tested plastic reed including storage tube. The reed holder is designed so that the position of the reed can be adjusted very easily. This allows you to quickly insert a new reed so that the chanter is precisely tuned.
