Lots of uilleann pipers play bombed out of their heads, skulls, small tiny feet, it’s not that unusual :pint: :laughing:

I would try a GHB forum - some of the bigger ones have a few regular readers from the bagad scene, and could point you in the right direction.

From what I gather, basically be aware. There is a lot of shoddy stuff out there, and a lot of people who talk a good talk.

Cheers,

There’s a Pipers Club in Paris. Many, many pipers in Brittany. I am sure some play both.

I don’t play Uillean pipes but I do play Bombards. I have two one in Bb and one in C. They were made by a company called Camac.

There is a Bombard Yahoo group but nothing much happens there.
