Beginner Bagpipe Set – College of Piping "German" Standard
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 PC2 Practice Chanter (standard version), but if you're unsure which chanter is right for you, read on to understand the differences.
The set includes:
- McCallum PC2 Practice Chanter (Standard size):
The McCallum PC2 is a durable practice chanter made of plastic, ideal for beginners. The standard size has hole spacing that is slightly narrower than a full-size pipe chanter, making it easier to grip and particularly beginner-friendly. It’s also ideal for practicing on a table, as the chanter can rest comfortably. - 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.
PC2 vs. PC4: Which one is right for you?
- PC2 (Standard size):
- Perfect for beginners due to the narrower hole spacing, making the chanter easier to handle.
- More convenient for practicing on a table.
- Recommended for those just starting out or with smaller hands. - PC4 (long version, available separately):
- Offers hole spacing similar to a full-size pipe chanter, allowing your fingers to adjust 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.
If you're just starting and prefer a smaller, easier-to-grip chanter, the PC2 is an excellent choice. However, if you want to simulate the feel of a full pipe chanter more closely, consider the PC4 (available in a separate set).
