Jori, I wish I had access to the knowledge and products you are offering when I started to learn this most beautiful instrument in 1978. Now I am old and have stopped playing in competitive bands as of last year. Access to your videos is keeping me going. I will stay tuned to your channel (pun intended) and I am vastly impressed by the products you offer which have equally enhanced the quality of piping in the world. Thanks!
When I began my piping journey, the doctrine was "Use a large bag, because more air is better". Well, it actually ruined my shoulder and took a few years of physical therapy to fix. I've played with small extended and medium after that. I can only recommend using a smaller size.
Wow! I'm sorry to hear that but glad you found a smaller bag. I almost quit piping as a young boy because of that same terrible advice to get a large bag.
Great information, Jori! A comprehensive video for novice to intermediate players and for anyone struggling to create music out of the notes, instead of struggling with a hard-to-play instrument. I’m sharing this with the band I play with. Thank you, Jori!!!
Great explanations, just returning to piping and bought some easy chanter reads but found out they were all playing near the 40inH2O. Some rubber bands applied and now they are all playing down around 32inH2O and such a dream to play now.
Loved your infomercial. I wish the great info that you were sharing had a little less advertisement of your products. I felt like you were just trying to sell stuff. I have 3 of your reed protector caps and also your tuner microphone and LOVE them, so I was looking for education not a commercial.
Thanks for watching and for the comment! I'm pleased to hear that you have three Tone Protectors and that you LOVE them! Despite the success and popularity of many of these products, I'm surprised how many pipers don't know about them. Happy Piping!

Thank you for your comments. I’m glad to hear you are enjoying your piping and that my products and videos have been helpful for you!
Thank you! Finally I'm able to play my bigger pipes (not GHB) after following this. Happy piper!
