Matt. You have been my Favorite Teacher for the past three years. Thank You Brother. I have reached a point now where my Heart is So deteriated that I can't play the Real Bagpipes any more. Buy I have a set of Border Pipes and an Electronic Chanter, and I strapped the electronic chanter onto the stock of the Border Pipes and can still produce enough Air to power the Border Pipe Drones and then play on the Electronic Chanter. So I nds Really Good. Wow! Talk about a Bagpipe addiction. But it's been a Great Life. No Regrets. My friends say when I'm in my grave they will probably hear the sound of Bagpipes. Probably 😊 Thank You Matt. You have been Such an Important part of my Journey.
Glad you finally got to unbox a set of these beauties. I've played a friend's set of Classic 4's and they are definitely a great make of pipes with a nice bold drone sound with a strong bass. They're easy to tune and are extremely steady. Cheers Matt!
Ive been away for quite some time, it's a pleasure to watch your videos again. Might be the good time to start playing again as well (no time for the last 2 years😢)
I toured Wallace Pipes in Paisley in august of 2019…. Perfect time after the World’s and got to met Craig Munro the owner/ maker… very passionate about the science with the bores of the drones and meticulous with the details of the hand turned combing…. Check them out next time you’re over there
@@MattWillisBagpiper mine were good. Never understand why he regarded every other brand as rubbish…D Naill, Hardies, Lowry…I thought they all played great…no difference in the workmanship
I agree. Although I do not have a set if Wallace highland pipes, I was able to afford an in tune practice set of Uilleann Pipes for an affordable price. Quality sets of pipes and pipe chanters, nowadays, because of the internet, are affordable, even for poor boys like myself.
Ok, cannot remember the name of the tune that Matt starts off at the beginning of this and some other videos. Right now it is like an ear worm...I have listened to enough of his videos that given time away from them I hear this tune in my head and now I am rather fond of it and want to learn it. Anyone?
Learning Wings now. Sounds fantastic on that set of pipes. Thanks for the video! How would you go about finding a place to practice for someone like me who’s in Student housing for school?
