Bagpipe drone reed help and set up

You can set up bagpipe drone reeds following the instructions in the links below. Properly installing the reeds is essential for getting the best performance from your instrument.

You must take the necessary steps to ensure an air-efficient bagpipe and the sound you desire. Incorrectly set up drone reeds can cause issues such as a double toning bass drone, unsteady drones, or your bagpipe drones cutting out.

You should maintain your drones/bagpipe in good condition. It is important that they are correctly hemped, have no loose or wobbling joints, and no joints that are excessively tight. Any efforts to produce a steady bagpipe will be ineffective if your instrument is not properly maintained.
