* JOHN WALSH 3 DRONE SHUTTLE PIPES ARE HAND MADE.
*The John Walsh Shuttle Pipes are similar in style and shape to the Shuttle Pipe which dates as far back as 1695.
*The original Shuttle Pipe was bellows blown and had three open ended drones which were carried in one main stock with a plain open ended chanter made of ivory.
*The chanter was closed at some time during the eighteenth century and later keys were added to increase its note capacity.
*Mounting the drones in a single stock was typical of the Old Irish or German Pipes.
*The Shuttle Pipes are very affordable, require minimal upkeep and are generally “fun to play”.
*They are very melodious and certainly an ideal instrument for practicing, as well as performing, by all levels of Highland Bagpipe players.
*The Shuttle Pipe is crafted from rock maple, is mouth-blown and uses practice chanter reeds.
*The Shuttle Pipes are in the Key of "A" and are mouth blown with the fingering being the same as the Great Highland Bagpipe.
*The pipe bag is made of synthetic material and the reeds are plastic.
*The 3-Drone shuttle has the additional of a baritone drone.
*The drones are tuned by moving the sliders back and forward down the shuttle section and can be turned off or on at anytime.
*The John Walsh Shuttle Pipes are hand crafted in Nova Scotia from quality materials to produce a uniquely sweet sound that is ideal for intimate performances where the Highland pipes would prove too overpowering.
