Hi, Gents. I's away finishing my next kilt and if any one wants to know how to make good sat of flashes I may pass instructions. Anyways I checked on http://www.hotpipes.com/ and made my decision towards their Millennium 2000 chanter and John Cairns "Bagpipe Solutions" set for 194.00 much more then I wanted to spend on the book and chanter, but from all your replays and life experience - chip pays twice, so I'm going for more expensive one.

And Chase, I'm turning 34 in April and never held any instruments in my hands, but friend of mine who is 52 felt in to guitar few years ago and he says fingering more demanding on guitar then on pipes its coordination of your action that the key so I'll be fine, so 'ld you, his opinion anyways.
