I was impressed with the selection of slips, ready for shaping and taping. Do you use Arundo from California? We are impressed with your website, so much so,...
Hey Bryan, I use California cane for my reeds. I find it is much nicer to work with because it is softer. I also prefer the tone to the harder Spanish cane I...
It seems I am not getting emails about upcoming events for I missed the last one in september. Please be sure to send updates to this address. I want to...
actually, i was mistakenly thinking you met again this monthwhen i saw you post on the photos, however I did not get an email about the Zac Leger workshop......
Hello everyone, Here's a report just to fill you in on last Saturday's workshop, photos have been posted as well. The workshop on Saturday with Zac Leger went...
Hey Ken, I just wanted to say that it was nice to meet you and I'm glad you were able to make it to the workshop and concert. I went lookin' for ya when I...
i was great to meet you as well, and thank you for the tin whistle. I am considering buying the Seth Gallagher practice set used on uilleannobsession, but i'll...
Hey fellas, As I probably told most of you all already, I've placed an order with Brad Angus to set me up with left-handed drones. I have decided I am going...
Ken, You could do much worse than to start with a Seth Gallagher practice set! The one for sale on UO looks very nice and clean. The chanter with the wooden...
i havent gotten the daye bag/bellows. I put a 50% deposit down ($125) and expect delivery in a few weeks. I suppose I could try to cancel or use the daye...
Absolutely not. Reverse that: you should definitely use the SG bag and bellows and keep the DD bag and bellows as your backup (if you do keep them). The...
Awesome, congratulations Ken! You won't be disappointed, that's for sure. Seth Gallagher makes quite the quality instrument. Be sure to keep us posted! Cheers,...
i am sure it is great quality... though there seems to be confusion over different types of so-called "ebony". That some ebony is better than others. I...
Gallagher makes wonderful pipes. It is crucial to start on a good quality set. The instrument is already hard enough. Eric's Gallagher full set is a thing of...
Hey Eric, The new tune edition is awesome. Everything was running fine on my browser (firefox) with Quicktime plugin. I think the different speeds is a great...
The ICC is nice. Maybe thay would let us use their facility since our organization is in line with their goals. Their rental rates are more than we could...
ok so are you saying it will likely crack under the ferrules in this Arizona climate change, or is that not very common? was it johnny who had SG pipes? does...
There is a chance of it, not a big deal. Any bagpipe can do it in our dry climate and it does not matter what type of wood is used. It is due to the wood...
I did not mean to imply that this would happen. Just a thing to watch out for. This generally happens from joints that are too tight. I would not worry about...
Not to stop you from looking into it or anything but I would be very surprised if they dropped their rates for us. Four Peaks Irish Arts has tried to work...
and as a last resort you would be welcome meeting up here in prescott :-) I know its probably more of a drive for some, but just an idea... Ken ... From:...
Two updates: 1) A sale is pending on the drones. 2) Got the call from Kirk Lynch the other day and my new left-handed chanter should be mailed to me within a...
I would like advice on whether I should get a reed from Seth Gallagher for my pipes or is it better to get one here since the weather may destroy it in...
Ken, Did Padraig not send the chanter with a reed? It sounded like, based on the listing, the chanter was virtually brand new and should have had Seth's...
no, he did in fact include a reed, but it stated in the ad that it was repaired and would likely need replacing. When Seth received the set, he said that it...
I could make a reed for the chanter. Though I make no guarantees on how the chanter will reed up. I am estimating I will have another batch of reeds ready in...
