McCallum black acetyl bagpipes have virtually the same sound quality as their blackwood bagpipes and the drones have identical dimensions to the blackwood range of McCallum Bagpipes. 


Why Acetyl?
These pipes are popular as a starter set, but also as an instrument which can be used for long parades in all climates. They are virtually indestructible, so the worry of any cracks appearing in extreme heat or cold is removed. They are also very easy to clean and maintain, so are the ideal choice as a bagpipe that may be passed on from one band member to another, or one learner to another. Perfect as a starter set before you decide to invest in your particular style of Blackwood bagpipe.


All McCallum black Acetyl bagpipes have a 10-year no quibble guarantee, but if looked after will last forever.

A NOTE TO CUSTOMERS IN THE USA

Due to recent trade decisions of the current US administration, we are suspending all orders and shipping to the USA for the time being. Tariffs of 35% on all products coming from Canada make prices unreasonable for you and shipping difficult, time consuming, and ultimately unprofitable for us. We'll keep our eye on things and get back to supplying our friends and customers in the USA as soon as we are able.
