I can't tell you how happy I am with the Laminate pipe chanter you have sent me. It has a wonderful tone, perfectly balanced scale and is by far the most comfortable pipe chanter to finger that I have ever played (in particular the bottom hand). The gracenoting is extremely crisp with this chanter and this complements solo piping. The laminate material is beautiful with a fine grain and colour, and the Moose Antler sole is very attractive with a lovely creamy patina to it. This will certainly be my number one chanter now for solo competitions. It is a great chanter and it has been great to deal with you as you are a true enthusiast of piping, a real craftsman and a gentleman as well. I would strongly recommend this chanter to any player at any level, particularly any solo competing piper."
 

Murray Huggins of Colin Kyo Bagpipes makes the best bagpipe chanter I've ever played and I'm not a compensated endorser.You can take that to the bank."
 

Got to try Charlie's composite chanter today. It was everything you said it would be, and it was by far the most comfortable pipe chanter I've ever played! It has a lot of potential and I wouldn't shy away from playing it at the highest level. It has much better projection than the majority of chanters out there, and it sacrifices nothing to keep it that way. It's stable, clear, well-made, comfortable, and it took little effort to get used to it. The pitch, which was a concern for me, was comfortable. I think you're making a great chanter, and I look forward to getting to know the pipes you make as well."
 

My laminated Colin Kyo pipe chanter is performing beautifully. I love the chanter and your drone reeds are fantastic."
 

They are beautiful and the craftsmanship is extraordinary."
 

 I love this chanter! Every note has a richness and purity I've never heard on any other chanter I've ever used, gracenotes are so clear and crisp, and it has surprisingly good volume! Very comfortable too! Thank you so much!"
 

Sincere thanks for giving me the most beautifully hand crafted and heart stirring set of pipes I have ever seen, heard, or played in my life. Murray is a true artist and musician to be able to create such an instrument."
 

 Your chanter lives up to all of my expectations. It is remarkably easy to play and to tune. I have experienced nothing but excellence so far from your products."
 

 I love it! It is definitely my most comfortable chanter to play."
 

The talent and the precision of Murray’s craftsmanship is staggering. I’m delighted I chose a Colin Kyo bagpipe. Far and above the best sounding bagpipe I have ever listened to. This is an instrument I will cherish throughout my lifetime."
 

Murray Huggins of Colin Kyo bagpipes would be one of the few highly experienced manufactures of quality Highland bagpipes. He is a true craftsman, not just a machinist, a craftsman who produces quality in sound and workmanship second to none."
 

My pipes are beautifully crafted. I coudn't imagine owning a set of pipes that are made with more love and care. When I show them to friends and family, the usual response is "Wow!" The beauty of the instrument is matched by the sound they make."
 

These are wonderful pipes. They look and sound beautiful. The pipes arrived ready to play. Working with Murray was a fantastic experience."
 

 It is something of a treat, being able to be present in Murrays' shop, watching as he turns billet of seasoned blackwood into what can only be described as works of art, as well as superb musical instruments. Not a CNC device to be found in this shop, anywhere. Using a metal lathe and specialized tools, Murray creates his instruments using his eyes and his experience. If I were allowed only one word to describe the sound, the quality of the created Colin Kyo Bagpipes, I would opt for: Sweet!!"
 

 The quality in sound and the craftsmanship is absolutely superb. Easy to tune, and I like the fact that the reed sits high in the reed seat."
 

 Our entire band purchased Colin Kyo instruments. We have never had tuning issues. It seems as though little effort is needed to get a good sound out of the Band. Murray's a great instructor, Piper and Pipe maker."
 

The Chanter has a good true sound. The finger holes are perfectly straight and comfortable. A good instrument indeed."
 

When I played the chanter for the first time I was impressed at how easy it was to tune. I was really enjoying my self. When I proceeded to sound High A, absolute joy! Clean, crisp and brilliant."
 

 These are exactly what I wanted! Proud Owner of a CK6."
 

It is without doubt a quality instrument of which you are justifiably proud."
