The Kilt & Thistle Reed
Made for Feather Bonnets Customers
The Kilt & Thistle chanter reeds are highly recommended,  and come in three strengths. Easy , medium and hard. However for a harder reed look at the Warnock. Our piping staff uses these because they work and work great.  Individually packaged and sealed. All reeds are pre-tested.

Chris Buckley, Piping Technician and Carl Dutton our Piping Instructor give their reviews.


Warnock McCann Ross
Warnock reeds have been the reed of choice for many years.  They make an extremely dependable band reed when longevity is a major factor. As any hard reed, they take a bit to break them in , but they are playable long after the others have gone on break. Warnock reeds are a dependable choice for both bands and individuals alike.  Made in Northern Ireland.  Produce plenty of volume.  Work very well in Warnock, Gibson, Shepherd, Dunbar and Kron chanters
 

 


 
McCann Reeds are new here at Feather Bonnets. They have been excellent sounding solo or band reed. Particularly suited to Gibson, Shepherd, McCallum and Kron chanters.
 

 

 

 

 

Ross Reeds
 Ross reeds are manufactured by Andy Ross in the U.S.A.  Excellent band or solo reed.  Ridge cut design allows for easier blowing and produces a slightly louder volume with rich harmonics.  Available in easy, medium and hard strengths.  Currently being used by Simon Fraser University and Field Marshall Montgomery Pipe Bands.
