Here's what people are saying about the Bagpipe Maintenance book by Michael Hamilton:

"Exactly what I needed! I got my bagpipes working withing 30 minutes of reading your book!" - P. Limb
 
"This little "how-to" book is Great!   I am a new piper and have been looking for help with the care
and feeding of my bagpipes. I've been playing a Chanter for three years, a synthetic bag goose for two, but this is my first year with Great Pipes, leather bags, and cane reeds.  Due to job schedule and location, I have only passing contact with other pipers to glean their sage wisdom... YIKES!!!!! This little book has a wealth of tips and tricks that are already paying dividends.   
...who would have thought! It pays to know your equipment. Thanks Again!
" Derrick Davis

The section on things to have in your travel kit is worth the price of the book alone.
I am very pleased with the purchase!" - Mike Van Deventer
 
 
"I am new bagpiper, and this book has come in so handy.  I put it in my pipe case, and it is always there when I travel.  It's small, and compact, and ever so handy.  I highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking to work on their pipes, and appreciates a smaller book so that you can travel with it." - Jim Iammatteo
