Check this out! I had a poor woman from Jacksonville just call me all excited to get going on her new pipes when they finally arrive (she thinks)… she would up buying 1/2 a chanter I think…
boy oh boy.
“also called the Northumbrian smallpipes…”
?!?
Key of “D”, case, bag, bellows, chanter, drones & regulators. Used in the sound track to Titanic, softer than the highland pipes. Includes two sets of reeds.
Also called the > > Northumbrian Smallpipe> .
(emphasis added)
Ignorance abounds!! 
Edit: billh beat me to the punch!! 
Someone once asked me what type of pipes I play. Upon hearing my reply they asked:
“So where exactly is Uilleann?”
I mean “come on man, do a little research!!!” northumbrians indeed!
The images are clearly the pakistani-made rip off’s of kirk’s pipes… this poor woman has no idea what she has bought… she even said she was avoiding the pakistani stuff that friends had warned her about…
oi vey!
I’ve always responded with ‘Irish pipes’ which sometimes leads to confusion with Scotttish pipes and a short discussion along those lines but better than trying to explain ‘uilleann’.
The term “union” won’t help either, especially when south of the Mason-Dixon line… in fact, in some remote areas, you might get hanged just for using the term. 
Has anyone tried to warn this poor woman about the trouble she has purchased?
Thats sad, do you know who she is so you can contact her…
Did you know that Uilleann Practice Pipes are Known as “Goose Pipes” and are preferred by some professional players due to the ability to be heard and in tune during sessions.
Just doing some research… 
WHAT?!?
I will have the lady come down with her new pakistani chanter and its plastic reed, and i will simply demonstrate the difference bet. these sorts of wares and the real thing. I see that this Kyle music has a “100% return policy” and will advise accordingly.
““regulators” on the chanters, which play harmonies.” is one of my favorite lines from their website.
“Goose” is a term often associated with GHB bag and chanter (sans drones). I could see where it would fit a UP practice set.
Did this lady buy from a US based company? If so, she should have some recourse through consumer protection laws. If not…
BTW, I’ve heard “Swan Neck” chanter tops referred to as “Goose Neck”.
This very discussion (ad nauseum) was what prompted us to put together this page:

Done only somewhat tounge in cheek!
So John…who is this person from Jacksonville? Does she play anything else, or are the pipes her first instrument?
Inquiring minds want to know…
