Bagpipe and Practice Chanter Cases
Pacaway Bag
Practice Chanter Cases (Bags)
These are all made in Scotland out of a tough material that is flock-backed black vinyl, to simulate leather.
Irish flutes and low whistles will fit styles CC2, CC3 and CC4.
CC1. In this style, which
takes either long or standard chanters, your practice chanter comes apart and the two
pieces sit beside each other. The plastic pocket is for your reed(s). Carrying handles,
and zipper around three sides. If your playing manual is the slim style, you can get that
inside as well. 16 1/2" long x 6" wide when zipped shut. $18.
At left we show the CC1 case with a
long chanter and its reed. A standard chanter fits just as well.
CC3. Long case with handles (see photo at left); the zipper goes
around three sides, so that the case opens flat. Overall size: 26" long x 4"
wide. You do not have to take your chanter apart to put it into this case. It is
long enough for long as well as standard chanters, and is wide enough for a sole. This
case also takes Irish flutes and low whistles, which are about the same length as long
practice chanters. $17
CC4. Budget practice chanter case is
made of black nylon fabric, lightly padded, with Velcro closure on flap. This case is long
enough for a standard chanter; a long chanter has to be taken apart to go in. It's wide
enough for two standard chanters side by side, or the
two parts of a long chanter.
Inside measurements: 22" x 4". $12
CC2. This case is like the CC1
above, except that this one is deeper and has two plastic pockets; one will hold a College
of Piping green book, and the other will hold reeds. You can just barely get a
larger book (for instance, a standard 8 1/2 x 11" size) into this case, but this size
of book will not go into the plastic pocket. Size when zipped shut: 17" x 9".
$21

Soft Padded Bagpipe Case
PC2. This padded lightweight case
has a zipper around three sides and an outside zippered pocket on the side, . This case
can be carried three ways: with side handles as shown at left, by a handle at the end (see
below left) or as a back pack (see below right). Your pipes travel
in a nest of thick padding. The outside material is a woven heavy-duty
nylon-type fabric. Inside dimensions: 22" x 11" x 5". Note that this is a soft
case, and that the dimensions are somewhat flexible on all sides, so that
extra-large pipes will fit as well. Weight of case: just a shade over 2 pounds.
Made in Scotland by Thistle of Blantyre. Available in black color.
$125. We have one of these left.
The rise in the British pound, among other things, has really hit the price of these
cases. Our apologies.


Quilted Fabric Bagpipe Case
PC3.
Budget bagpipe carrying case. Tough quilted black nylon, nylon zipper with metal zipper
pulls, carrying handles. 24 1/2" long, 6" wide, 6" high. The zipper goes
all along the length on top. A fullsize set of highland pipes goes easily into this case.
$25
Hard Case for Standard Bagpipes
PC4.
Hard case for standard bagpipes. Blue, with red fabric interior. 23 1/2" x 8" x
6 1/2", slightly less inside. $60
We also have a roomy hard case on our uilleann pipes page, at $63. This one looks like the one at left, but is larger.
