    Here's a suggestion that does not come up very often.

    Try the Uileann (ill-in) Pipes. It's the "Irish" version with the arm bellows.

    As long as you have a tutor, it's pretty much the same. I have a set, and they're a BLAST! Since the others in Barleyjuice have the Highland Pipes, it adds a completely different sound.

    Not too many, save Davey Spillane, are playing them these days and the sound is haunting. It's worth a "look".

    You can actually get a small set that works from www.irishshop.com

    Took a look at the site, but couldn't find the pipes. Lots of bohdrans though! Perhaps they have changed their catalogue after Christmas season?

    Slainte,

    Perhaps they have changed their website after 4 years. Check the dates of the posts.
