Pictured
below are the distinctive MacDougall™-shape
projecting mounts on Atherton bagpipes.
The mounts are available in artificial
ivory, holly, boxwood, and African
blackwood as standard materials. If
you are interested in another material
for mounts, please call or email.
All mounts, regardless of the material,
are precision threaded onto the wood.
This eliminates the common problem
of loose and falling mounts, which
is so common on inferior brands of
pipes. |
