1.Gibson Practice Chanter Kit from: Gibson Bagpipes
Average Rating: >>More Details
This is a good practice chanter from a name-brand manufacturer, and includes what is probably the most widely-used beginner's book and a CD. The included reed is decent also, which is a plus. There are better chanters out there, but this is a perfectly good choice. I prefer long practice chanters like this, as it feels a bit more like the pipe chanter itself. If you are buying this for yourself or as a gift, and you know little or nothing about piping, you can be assured this is a good starting point.

These reeds push out a huge volume of sound. The sound is very nice, and they are particularly great in long-length practice chanters.

3.Gibson Regular Practice Chanter from: Gibson Bagpipes
Average Rating: >>More Details
If you want to learn the pipes, you must have a practice chanter (and an instructor!) If $$ is an object, this is probably the least expensive PC's out there and well worth the cost. Whether you get it from this vendor, or another, you really can't go wrong with this chanter. The only thing I would caution on, is insure that you get the "Gibson" reed with the chanter. (should be included at this price). The combination of the Gibson Chanter & Gibson reed (email me to find out how to tell), sounds great. Just stay away from the sub $50 "rosewood" practice chanters. They're novelty quality at best.
