- A Full Set of Uilleann Pipes
This was the first full set of Uillean Pipes that I made. It was made in stages for Greg Schnider: first as a practice set, then the drones were added, and finally the regulator pipes were added to make what is referred to as a full set. They are made of maple, brass, leather, and blackwood.
