In 2018 R.G. Hardie celebrated 150 years of Peter Henderson Bagpipe making. To mark this historic occasion they created this unique set of Heritage Bagpipes paying tribute to the Henderson tradition. It is an instrument of the highest quality to play and pass onto the next generation.
Peter Henderson Heritage Bagpipes are made from African Blackwood, instrument grade boxwood and nickel with a unique laser etched design. The projecting mount profile is based upon a 1910 set which are more refined in comparison to those of the 1920s. The boxwood is rated first grade and polishes to a high natural lustre providing a beautiful contrast to African blackwood. Using state-of-the-art software, RGH have created a unique Thistle design with a level of detail that can only be achieved with laser etching.
Peter Henderson Bagpipes feature an innovative plastic lining system in the blowpipe and blowpipe stock which protects the inside of the wood from the stresses and strains caused by moisture.
Each set comes with it's own unique number engraved on the Bass Stock.
PH1HT Features:
Laser etched nickel ferrules, slides, ring caps and mouthpiece slide.
Boxwood projecting mounts and bushes.
5-year guarantee.
Comes with an "Infinity" plastic solo chanter.
“The Peter Henderson Heritage Pipes look and sound great. The engraving is impressive and the grain in the boxwood mounts make the pipes look very authentic. The tone is very full and sonorous with a deep resonant bass and overall they have a very warm and resonant sound. I really enjoyed playing them at Winter Storm this year.”
