Are any of the bellows on ebay good? If not can anyone suggest where I can get bellows in the uk. Second hand is fine.

Hi Bob
Which of the 2 bellows are you looking at? - The Preshaw ones or the smallpipe ones from Dunfion bagpipes?. I would have thought either would do, the Preshaw ones might sell for less than the smallpipe ones, but you will be guaranteed to get the Dunfion ones ( they seem to have a few in stock).

I cant see the preshaw ones. Are smallpipe bellows large enough to power a full set?I dont want to feel like a humming bird trying to fly when I finally upgrade that far ![]()

Actually, as long as we’re on the topic… Anyone got recommendations on where to get a decent set of bellows in the States?
I bought the recent set of o’Gradys on ebay… they just seemed “loose” when I got them. Well, I hooked up my practice set bellows to them, and BOOM! Much better.
I want to put my practice set up for sale, so I really don’t want to swap out bellows that way, since the O’grady bellows won’t fit the practice set.
Thanks… been playing less than a year, this is all new to me!

Jim Schaefer in PA. He has a good reputation on this forum.
Bellows made by Michael Dow also have a very good reputation.
Ooo. some handsome bellows indeed.
Thanks for the leads, everyone… muchly appreciated!
