For those who had thought about getting into smallpipes but were put off by the prices here's a Dunbar smallpipe for a very low opening bid.
Who can say how high the bidding might eventually go.
I didn't know Dunbar made smallpipes. I've been on their site many times but never looked at anything other than their fullsize pipes.
These are the setup I prefer and play myself, mouthblown, with drones in separate stocks. The Victorian makers called these "miniature Highland pipes, or chamber pipes".
They have one of those old L&M "elkhide" (chrome-tanned cowhide) bags that last forever and never need seasoning.
I'm guessing they're in the key of B-flat.
