All of the pipes of this type (at least in my experience) are based around the central French musette chanter and tend to be in the key of G. They usually only have a single bass drone pitched an octave below the bottom fundamental note of the chanter.

Thank you Bill.
Jon is an old friend. I know his pipes well. We played togetter many a time .
I met Franz Hattink . I'm not sure for Sean Jones. How old is Sean ?
