Description
"For stability and overall rich harmonics the McCallums' are the best I have played", says Pipe Major Michael Grey. And who are we to argue? The finest bagpipes in the world, for your lifelong pleasure.
This set looks like engraved silver and ivory but comes at a fraction of the cost.
The AB4 set is made from African blackwood and is fully combed and beaded. It includes imitation ivory projecting mounts, engraved nickel ferrules and slides, engraved nickel ringcaps, imitation ivory bushes, engraved nickel and imitation ivory mouthpiece and a McCallum plastic pipe chanter (although a blackwood chanter can be added for an additional cost if required).
It also comes complete with a synthetic sipper pipe bag, a corded bag cover, silk cords and synthetic drone reeds.
Available in four different designs - Thistle, Celtic, Zoomorphic or Victorian Scroll.
McCallum Bagpipes are one of the best known and most advanced bagpipe manufacturers in the world. They produce the highest quality bagpipes, smallpipes, chanters and piping products.

These pipes are just great. I have played them for 2 years now, and I just love them more and more. The look and feel of the AB4 is like nothing else in this price range. Anywhere I play pipers and nonpipers are pleased with the apperance and sound of them. The blackwood is high quality, and the turning is as good as it gets. The bore of the drones and stocks is within the smallest limits, and I just had one accident with a stock that got a crack and had to be replaced. The sound of the drones is lovely, with a great ballance between mellow softnes and penetration. I use a set of Ross cane tongue reeds, and this compination of cane sound and McCallum drones is just down my alley. I have also tried SM90, Ross Omega, Crozie and Ezee drone reeds,- and they all sounded great in these pipes. If you are looking for a set of pipes that are great looking, and with a great sound,- you have to look at the McCallum AB4. Its as simple as that. Pipe sargent Henrik Franke SPAD Denmark
