I'm a lapsed GH piper who is interested in playing pipes again, but at a more subtle level -- with Scottish smallpipes. My quandary is should i purchase (a) a bellows blown set or (b) a mouth blown set (and use plastic reeds)? How difficult is it to learn the coordination of playing with bellows? (I'm 60 and am not willing to put a lot of time into it since i'm also learning to play guitar.) Any GH pipers out there willing to share their experience with either type? Thanks for any comments.
