Complete Guide to Highland Bagpipe Reeds by Chris Apps
The Complete Guide to Highland Bagpipe Reeds is a 57 page updated and improved version of the Bagpipe Reed Adjustment booklet. Whereas the small booklet focused solely on molded chanter reeds the new larger book also includes information on ridge-cut chanter reeds, drone reeds and practice chanter reeds.
There is a chapter explaining the different chanter reeds and the necessary tools to adjust/maintain them. You’ll also find information on setting up and maintaining the pipes for optimum reed function. The book is filled with photographs and diagrams to illustrate the techniques discussed.
