The instrument
The Standard Set combines Donald WG Lindsay's fully tuneable, keyless extended-range chanter with the full four-drone system: Bass A/B, Baritone D/E, Tenor A/B and Alto D/E. It includes extended drone-tuning facilities, drone shutoff and flow control.
A complimentary orientation course of up to five online lessons with Donald is included. We can cover setup, bellows control, tuning, maintenance and a clear starting path for technique and repertoire.
