Last I heard, David Quinn had the chanter at his shop for measuring or something.

David is sending the chanter back, and it is included. There are pictures of the chanter in the "Pictures of your pipes" thread. The bass regulator, which is included, was presumably made by Hutton. There is no Taylor bellows with the set.

This one is. It belongs with this set.

Mark, this set is in great shape from what I can tell, did you do any cleaning/restorative work on it? If so, what did you do?

I put new pads on the keys, put sleeves the regulator bores in the mainstock out of thin walled brass, made a new loop section for the bass drone, a new teneon section for the baritone drone, put old reeds in the drones and some sh*t reeds in the regulators and then just played the crap out of them for a few decades.

Thanks... I think.

Is this set still for sale? I found some photos taken by DMQ. Are they photos of this chanter?

Why not compare them to the photos I posted above?
