Fred Morrison Scottish Smallpipes in Key of A – A Precision Instrument with a Beautiful Sound

The Fred Morrison Scottish Smallpipes are a beautifully crafted precision musical instrument with outstanding sound quality. They produce a softer, mellower, and sweeter tone than Highland bagpipes, making them ideal for playing at home or in group settings where volume might be a concern.

The fingering technique is identical to that of the Highland pipes, making these smallpipes a popular choice for Highland pipers who wish to expand their musical repertoire and explore new piping styles.

  • Blackwood chanter in A with a cane reed
  • Split chanter stock for quick and secure removal
  • Blackwood blowpipe with alloy mouthpiece (mouth-blown version only)
  • Luxury hand-made bellows with plush leather padding for maximum comfort (bellows-blown version only)
  • Synthetic bag (medium size, other sizes available on request) – Zipper Bag for mouth-blown version
  • Ezeedrone Smallpipe Drone Reeds

Hand-Crafted Bellows for the Bellows-Blown Version:

The luxury hand-made bellows are fully padded with hand-sewn plush leather cushions on the front and back, ensuring both comfort and ease of play. Made from the highest quality materials, these bellows provide excellent air efficiency and are built to last for many years.

Mouth-Blown vs. Bellows-Blown – Which One to Choose?

This smallpipe set is available in two versions:

  • Mouth-blown: Equipped with a Blackwood blowpipe and alloy mouthpiece, allowing for direct air input through blowing. Supplied with a **Zipper Bag** for easy maintenance and a **Moisture Control System** to help keep the reeds in optimal condition.
  • Bellows-blown: Comes with a luxury hand-made bellows, crafted with premium materials for a steady airflow and enhanced comfort. The ergonomic design ensures effortless operation, reducing moisture build-up and prolonging reed life.

Both versions provide the same warm and resonant sound – the choice depends on your playing preference.

Optional Extras:

  • A Drone-Switch can be ordered separately.
