First posted on the u. pipes board a couple of days ago…
Well, it seems genuine enough. I wrote (from his website davyspillane.com) yesterday and just asked for more information about his pipes since they seem to be an enigma to most of us - more out of curiosity than anything else. Honestly didn’t even expect a reply. But here it is one day later! Made the currency conversions online just for general comparison. CRIPES! He’s an expensive bloke ain’t he?
Dale has also requested that one of us buy one of his whistles so he can do a review of it “for the first time in 8 years!” LOL
