Wholesaler for shop owners

[gilmore]

The fact that the catalog owners don't know what they're selling is amply illustrated by my favorite catalog photo of all time, which shows a tan wooden practice chanter with the reed stuck into the hole at the top of the blowstick _outside_ the chanter....!

Some Asian split reed instruments, such as the gya ling, which is used in Tibetan Buddhist rituals, are played with the reed outside the intrument and inside one's mouth. It seems to work better that way with the continuous breathing method of playing, where one inhales and exhales at the same time, using the cheeks like the bag in a bagpipe to force the air out through the reed.

Many instruments have a reed on the outside, ie: bassoon and oboe. Bagpipes and Chanters, however, do not.

Absolutely. My point was that the people who put the catalog together don't know _bagpipes_.

Even if you were to buy from them, the shipping is murder! Sometime it can be as much as your total order. Though I must say, The quality leaves alot to be desired.
