Ten headlines we could be writing in 2016

All-synthetic quality Highland bagpipe now reality

For the first time in history an excellent-sounding Highland pipe with every component made from synthetic material will be an option for serious pipers. Advances with Delrin, carbon-fibre, Gore-Tex, Teflon and other man-made products now make it possible to create an instrument as good as anything out there and with far more stability.
