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 DN6A is our premiere set by David Naill. It is both majestic and powerful, showcasing the best craftsmanship and metalwork we offer. These are top of the line David Naill pipes, fully mounted with Victorian hand engraved Sterling silver. We exclusively use .925 Sterling silver for this model. Included are full silver mouthpiece and chanter sole - both made from a solid piece. Our projecting mounts are made from thick walled castings which are machined and then turned by hand to finish - they are not filled. The weight of the Sterling silver on this set is approximately 1.35 kgs/2.98 lbs. Complete with blackwood pipe chanter (sterling 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.
