Pipes

The parts to the GHB

The Great Highland Bagpipe (GHB) is the most common bagpipe you will see, especially in Scotland but it is not the only type of bagpipe!  Even I have a second bagpipe called a small pipe that is similar to the GHB.  There are many more.  Historically, it is thought that the bagpipe originated somewhere in the middle-east and in fact there are many variations there still being played.   But, my instrument, the GHB is a descendent of designs that have existing in Scotland for hundreds if not thousands of years
