Description: Used set of African blackwood Shepher S4 bagpipes. About 10 years old, but rarely used for the last 8 years as they have been my backup pipes for awhile. Looking to sell as I don't have room for excess bagpipes anymore.

Details:

<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->-African Blackwood

-Nickel ferrules and tuning slides

-imitation ivory projecting mounts, ring caps and bushing

-Retails for $1399

Includes:

-Shepherd Poly Chanter- can also include a Gibson poly chanter for an additional $50

- Setup of E-Z drone reeds

- Fitted with Ross cannister bag, a $200 value (this is an older model with clamp closure), will include leather bag if you prefer

- Soft Case from The British Shop

Minor damage includes:

Small crack professionally fixed in blowpipe, also some of imit. ivory mount on blowpipe is cracked off (most bagpipers choose to replace the original blowpipe anyways). There is also some very minor wear in the varnish in places and a small chip in one imit. ivory mount on bass drone. All wear is purely aesthetic, the wood is in perfect condition and they play great.

Take advantage of this great price!

(Pics coming soon)
