For over forty years, David Naill & Company Ltd. have delivered the exceptional tonal quality sought after by the world's top players. A great piper needs the right combination of training, experience, and ability, the same is true of bagpipe makers. David Naill set new standards of excellence and expectation in the way bagpipes are finished — from exquisite turning and bores, precise beading and combing, to the finest hand engraved metalwork from in-house silversmiths. From early on Les Cowell diligently sought input from champion players on what makes for the best-sounding instrument. And throughout the years since, his bagpipes have been the result of the marriage of unsurpassed craftsmanship with the master player's ear — bagpipes both equal in beauty and harmonics. The DN4A model features plain, hallmarked Sterling silver ring caps and a silver mouthpiece tube. We exclusively use .925 Sterling silver for this model. Even without engraving the quality shines in the silver mounts. No metal gives off or maintains a sheen like Sterling silver, and these pipes are among the most attractive in the business. A light polishing with a silver cloth once a month will keep this set shining like new in perpetuity. This model also includes a half-silver mouthpiece. Complete with blackwood pipe chanter (silver band). Includes a two-year warranty on all bagpipe parts. All of these add-ons are listed at reduced prices to get you started on the right foot. Anything you add-on will be assembled and tested by one of our expert pipers.
