R.G. Hardie RGH01 Blackwood Bagpipes

R.G. Hardie bagpipes, handcrafted in Scotland, are a trusted choice for military pipe bands and pipers worldwide. Known for their superior craftsmanship and unique designs, these bagpipes are crafted to meet the needs of both beginners and experienced players. Every bagpipe is meticulously crafted from African Blackwood, ensuring exceptional quality, durability, and tonal excellence.

One of the standout features of R.G. Hardie bagpipes is their innovative plastic lining system, applied exclusively to the blowpipe and blowpipe stock. These components are particularly vulnerable to moisture, and the plastic lining significantly reduces the risk of cracking, ensuring reliability and longevity. This thoughtful feature maintains consistent performance while preserving the integrity of the Blackwood.

Each R.G. Hardie bagpipe set features R.G. Hardie and the year of manufacture engraved on the bass stock, signifying authenticity and Scottish heritage.

RGH01 Features:

• Plain combed African Blackwood
• Beaded nickel ferrules
• Imitation ivory ring caps, ring cap bushes, and projecting mounts
• 5-year guarantee for peace of mind
