And...a word from the customers:

I am extremely pleased with the Fred Morrison Reel Chanter. It has a sweet sound, lovely overtones and I am looking forward to using it in concert.

It is a very nice looking chanter. Good craftsmanship. Well done. Makes me wish now that I had the whole set.

My first impressions were excellent. The chanter pitch is right on. I am mostly pleased that the FM chanter is considerably more stable in pitch, especially the high hand notes in comparison to my other chanter.

So as I say, my first impressions are all excellent. Thanks for everything. This has been an easy, no stress and very timely transaction. I'm really very pleased.  Please convey my regards and appreciation to the Morrisons as well.

Cheers and good piping,

Fred Morrison reelpipes are the bomb! I am so glad I decided to order these pipes, I cannot seem to put them down. My 1870 Hendersons,and uilleann pipes are being neglected. I'd like to thank Iain for the great service in getting them across the pond to me.

After a short adjustment period to the bellows technique I had a great time with Fred's pipes. They were easy to tune, steady and gave me a whole new perspective on how to create bagpipe music.

Fred Morrison and crew sent me a beautiful set of pipes with superior bellows and very nice chanter tone. Finally I have brought a
"Highland-sounding" bagpipe to the San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers that's in concert pitch and not quite so loud-- the rift between fiddlers and pipers has been mended.
