Overview Chanter Bubinga Asturian Bagpipe 360x38x38 mm:

In Maderas Barber we have available all the necessary sizes to build your Asturian bagpipe. The Chanter is one of the fundamental pieces of the bagpipe, as it is where the holes that allow the piper to produce the melodies are located.

Bubinga, an African wood sometimes called African Rosewood for having a certain resemblance to some Dalbergias, is a very hard wood, of reddish-pinkish tones, with very characteristic deep red streaks. Its mechanical qualities make it an ideal wood, along with the rest of the other woods we have selected for the same function, for its use as raw material in the construction of wind instruments such as bagpipes and shawms.
