McCallum Plastic Pipe Chanter
McCallum Bagpipes pipe chanters are manufactured from Polypenco. These instruments are a quality product producing a true tone for the discerning ear. Each chanter carries the McCallum Bagpipes marking, your guarantee of workmanship to the highest standards.
There is a thread on the reed
seat of all chanters (except
C4) which alleviates the
problems of the reed coming
loose, especially on the plastic
chanter in dry conditions. This
locks the reed in place until
adjusted by the piper. it’s also a much more
accurate way of setting the
chanter reed pitch.
You turn the reed clockwise
to sink the reed and sharpen it,
and the anti-clockwise to raise
it and sharpen it. The standard pipe Chanter
(C1, C2) is played by pipe bands
worldwide, including many of the
top grade 1 bands. in addition,
it is also played by many top
soloists and has won almost
every top piping award.

Ayr Fire Solo Pipe Chanter
The solo bagpipe has become an exceptionally refined instrument with pipers' expectations of their instrument being greater than ever.
While chanter design has improved enormously the one area that still proves to be inconsistent at best is the High G, and more specifically the 'piobaireachd High G'. Matching reed to chanter is critical to achieving the required stability to tackle some of the classic pieces in the piobaireachd repertoire. The AyrFire Chanter was crafted in collaboration with renowned piper, judge and reed maker, Colin MacLellan to overcome this problem. As well as giving the rich balanced tone that soloists expect, the unique elongated High G hole helps create stability while also giving greater scope for tuning. The fact that the High G hole is elongated means that tuning tape is normally required to cover at least half of the hole without compromising the tonal quality of the note. All chanters are supplied with a MacLellan chanter reed and a soft wood reed protector which will help prevent the build up of mould on the reed during drying out and also give longer reed life.

RG Hardie Bagpipe Chanter Reed Protector
Reed Protector also known as a false stock allows the chanter reed to dry whilst storing an instrument between use helping prevent mildew and prolonging reed life.
RG Hardie Practice Chanter Reed Protector
This reed protector is for blackwood chanters due to a common problem where the top cracks. It is very important to break down the chanter and allow the hemp to dry out. If this is not done it can cause the top to crack.
This reed protector features extra holes at the top allowing the reed to be safely stored in a pipe case while the chanter dries out after playing.
