    These started super low and are getting plenty of bids.

    The chanter is Hardie but nothing about the drones looks Hardie to me.

    Frankenpipes, as we can see, not to say that Frankenpipes are necessarily bad. Prizes have been won on some of them.

    No cords to hide stamps but I've not spotted any stamps yet.

    I did a quick collage where it's obvious that the three drone tops are by three different makers.

    I would guess the middle Tenor top is Grainger & Campbell. They didn't always do oddly small stumpy drone tops, but I can't think of another maker who did them at all.

    The right-hand Tenor top has more ordinary proportions.
