Arundo Donax grown in Scotland!
I picked this cane earlier this year which was un-naturally growing naturally near a loch in Scotland. I was quite surprised to see it standing there, this piece just happened to fall off into my hands. Maybe I'll get a drone reed out of it.

Quarter set
Well for lack of a better name I'll call it a quarter set, it is a practice set with a tenor drone.
Ebony, brass, imitation ivory chanter; rosewood brass, imit. ivory drone, bag and bellows.
D pitch. My wife says the curly drone is cute, but then, she thinks pugs are cute and she married me too :)
Only one in stock see www.kmbagpipes.com/hotstuff.html
