Atherton MacDougall™ reproduction
in African blackwood. This set is
fully mounted in palm "ivory".
There are 23 pieces of palm ivory
on this instrument. Every single
piece is precision threaded onto
the pipe. This means that there
are 46 parts that are threaded,
though it cannot be seen. This set
has the original MacDougall combing
and beading pattern (6 teeth, 26
tpi, the first set was custom).
I would personally like to thank
Duncan and Gavin MacDougall, David
Glen, and Donald MacDonald for making
the finest bagpipes the world has
known, and for providing me with
years of inspiration. |
