Peter Henderson Polypenco Pipe Chanter

This chanter, in polypenco plastic, has steadily gained in popularity, particularly among soloists, including several at the top levels. It pitches at 478 cps or higher and favours Shepherd or MacPhee reeds. It is bold and vibrant, and exhibits a noticeable blend with well tuned drones. It is made by the R. G. Hardie company in Glasgow, a subsidiary of the St. Kilda Holdings Group, who bought the R. G. Hardie and Peter Henderson name some years ago. Each chanter comes with a plastic chanter cap provided by the maker, as shown in the picture, a threaded reedseat, and a reed in your desired strength. Band discounts are available.
