This review is from: Authentic Scottish Bagpipe Beginner's Chanter Kit
I started taking lessons about a month ago and right away my instructor insisted I get a new chanter. This chanter did help me figure out how to play the nine notes and grace note scale but it sounds funny when played along side a better quality chanter. It also has some defects tht my instructor pointed out. The top three holes are not lined up making it difficult to play at times. I have recently replaced it with a Dunbar chanter sold by "Universe of Bagpipes" for a kit price of $99. That $20 extra is worth spending on a quality chanter unlike my self who now spent $178. $79 of which was wasted on the Caledonia chanter kit. Other quality chanters for a fair price are Naill and Gibson plus others.
