Title: Not a good reed
Product review: Mid-east blackwood uilleann chanters are decently tuned and they will play two octaves, but not with this reed. This plastic reed will not play in tune and it plays only the lower octave. The reed does not play in tune because the staple is too short. You can get the reed to play the lower octave in tune by extending the length of the staple with a bit of 3/16 inch brass tubing. Many people seem to think that Pakistani pipes are unplayable. The chanters and drones are fine--it's the reeds that are the problem.
