Scam's happen. One that comes up periodically is they say they are 'working off-shore' on oil rigs and "could only pay via Paypal". It seems they then try to set up some elaborate scheme for a courier who will ask for an extortionate amount of money from you.

Brian Bigley comes from musical family on the west side of Cleveland. Studying with Achill Island, piper Michael Kilbane from the age of eight, Brian's sensitivity to the art of uilleann piping has developed into a high level of understanding. His interest in maintaining the best sound possible led Brian to study the art of pipe-making with Seth Gallagher in upstate New York and time spent with flute maker Patrick Olwell. He is currently making pipes in the style of the late Dave Williams and is an accomplished reed maker. Competitive accolades include taking first prize at the Midwest Regional Fleadh Cheoil 2007.
Every set of pipes I make is made entirely to individual order which guarantees that your pipes are made personally for you and so are unique and special to you and your requirements.
My styles and methods have been developed and well-honed in over 30 years of pipe-making. I can therefore guarantee that every set of Pipes I make will be fully in tune and properly adjusted to all of the expected norms of playing.
If you go to my 'Uilleann' page you will find many pictures showing details of my Irish Uilleann Pipes and in addition several articles on Uilleann Pipes, the history of the Uilleann Pipes and advice on buying Uilleann Pipes.
If you visit my 'Links' page you will find links to a good variety of websites dedicated to both Uilleann Piping and Scottish Smallpipe interest. I hope you find what you are looking for on these pages and please feel free to contact me with any questions - ray@raysloan.comWebsite:www.RaySloan.com
Eugene Lambe D ½ Set - Manufactured in 1992.
I'm selling as I bought a new 3/4 set and no longer need this half set.
I recently refurbished them and have played this set at several concerts this year. The Chanter was re-reeded by Cesar Pastor in February 2024 and comes with 2 reeds, both working. Drones reeded with Ezeedrone reeds in 2025 and they are well balanced with the chanter pressure. A new Kelleher bag was installed in 2025. A BandPack Pro Piper Bagpipe Case is included. This set is ready to ship and play.
I am the second owner and will give all of the original sales paperwork to the buyer from the original owner.
See Video for a sound clip and photos. Message me for more info.
An estimated shipping fee of $175.00 is extra for continental US locations and includes insurance up to selling price.

Hevia, Parrado y Aragón L/H D Drones - Top-of-the-range drones, configured for left-handed players (this is important if you want to complete the set with regulators), however, they can be used perfectly well by right-handed players if you do not intend to use a low regulator
- if you have any questions, I can put you in touch with the craftsman who made them. (Carlos Aragón) in Spain
- I am selling them because I do not use them and they are of very good quality (an instrument like this should not be left unused). On the other hand, as they are left-handed, they are very difficult to find.
- Practically new. Even a broken piece of marfilina has been replaced with a new one, made by luthier, with wood (black granadillo wood), metal and marfilina decorations.
- High-quality reeds (Ezee drones reeds)
- Engraved with the name 'Hevia, Parrado y Aragón'
- Celtic engraving design on the drone body.
- Bellows seats (wood and metal) and chanter (marfilina).
- Incudes high-quality leather bag and stocks, black velvet bag cover and for left-handed players (can be configured for right-handed players if desired).

Tim Benson C ½ Set - Description: Made of brass and bubinga wood, with a c-natural key. Bellows not included. The drones have a very big, rich sound. So does the chanter. Excellent condition. Comes with two cane chanter reeds, both of which sound nice and play well. The drones are reeded and playing well. I messed up the tenor drone reed and replaced it with an old D-baritone drone reed, and now the tenor drone plays a fifth above the bass and baritone drones. Neat sound. Condition: Excellent. Issues: None, except I've reeded the tenor to play a fifth above the bass and baritone. Materials: Bubinga wood and brass. Reason for sale: I am selling (or trading) because I want to try out as many flat sets as I can before settling down with one. I've spent a bit of time with this set and enjoyed it, but want to try out a different pitch.

Kirk Lynch D ½ Set - This is the last set Kirk built as he has retired (per Kirk) and the only nickel plated set he ever built.
The set has a wood top with stop key, C and F keys and composite drone reeds. There are 3 chanter reeds made by him and one made by Tim Britton. The Lynch reeds 2 will need some TLC and the one marked new is ok. The Britton reed is the best.
The set comes with a BAM carbon fiber viola case ($1000,00 what I paid) and holds the set perfectly.
I'm sadly selling the set due to a work related injury (back) and new work situation which is 6 days per week.

Eugene Lambe D Full Set - Chanter & Drones 2013. Tenor & Baritone Regulator 2013. Bass Regulator 2013. I have owned and played this set since it was made - there are no previous owners. Material: Blackwood, Brass, faux ivory Special Features: Chanter has a C-natural key and a second key for the F-natural. Condition: The overall condition is very good. I have never polished the brass parts. There is a small dent in the brass. The plastic mounts on the drones have turned a bit yellow over the years. One of the regulators is not working because I've accidentally disassembled the reed, which is in perfect conditions, but needs to be assembled properly. Reason for sale: Honestly, I've played it few times because I didn't have time to sit down and learn how to really play them and I'm still in the same situation, so they are in great condition. Asking Price: I'm hoping for 4500USD but I'm open to offers. It will go for the best bid.

Seivane Gaitas in C - I'm looking to sell my brand new Seivane gaitas set in C or quite possibly to exchange the set for a bellows blown set of Fred Morrison smallpipes in A.
I'm predominantly a Highland piper and bought and started to learn the gaitas with the best of intentions. However I have realized I just don't have the time to take up a second instrument. Guess I was impulse buying; my loss, your gain.
The gaita set is made from granadilla with engraved triskele silver ring caps, bass drone, chanter and tenor drone, black velvet cover with black and red cords. Comes with sturdy Seivane embossed carry case.
