Caveat emptor!

Do more research on this product BEFORE you bid on the auction.

I suspect it’s ONLY the chanter and plastic reeds.
It does not include a reed cap.
The reed cap is part of a seperately sold bag and bellows.

Once you’re forced to buy ‘the rest of the practice set parts’ and realize it’s not playable, you’ll be sorely disapointed.

Personally, I would avoid it. Look for one with a maker proud enough of his work to have his personal name associated with it.

Real UP chanters do not withstand mouth blowing, btw, so I suspect plastic GHB practice reeds are included.

See the FAQ, FAQ, FAQ for good info on buying.

I’d settle for one of their $28 Rosewood Kalimbas before I’d risk any amount on that chanter.
