Beginner Bagpipe Set – College of Piping "German" Long
This beginner set includes everything you need to start learning to play the bagpipes. It is suitable for both adults and older children, offering high-quality components that provide a solid foundation for your piping journey. This set includes the McCallum PC4 Practice Chanter (long version), but if you're unsure which chanter is right for you, read on to understand the differences.
The set includes:
- McCallum PC4 Practice Chanter (long version):
The McCallum PC4 is a durable practice chanter made of plastic, ideal for those looking to mimic the feel of a full-sized pipe chanter. The longer version offers hole spacing similar to a full pipe chanter, allowing your fingers to adjust more quickly to the correct spacing. It is also more comfortable to rest on the knee while seated, making practice easier. - Practice Chanter Reed:
This set includes a plastic reed, so you can start playing immediately. - College of Piping Tutor Book (in German):
This comprehensive tutor book in German offers clear, step-by-step lessons to systematically develop your piping skills. It also includes links to online video clips for each lesson, providing visual support.
PC4 vs. PC2: Which one is right for you?
- PC4 (long version):
- Offers hole spacing similar to a full-size pipe chanter, allowing your fingers to get used to the spacing more quickly.
- Easier to rest on the knee while seated and provides a more natural playing feel.
- Ideal for those looking to transition smoothly to a full pipe chanter. - PC2 (standard size, available separately):
- Perfect for beginners due to the narrower hole spacing, making handling and gripping easier.
- Ideal for practicing on a table or while seated, as the chanter can be easily rested.
- Recommended for those just starting or with smaller hands.
If you want to mimic the feel of a full pipe chanter, the PC4 is the best choice. However, if you're just starting and prefer a smaller, easier-to-grip chanter, consider the PC2 (available in a separate set).
