Replacement drone reeds for the full size bagpipe.

Cane drone reeds are handmade of Spanish cane and give a traditional sound. Aluminum reeds with carbon fiber tongues are a synthetic alternative many pipers find more consistent. Buy a single tenor or bass reed, or the aluminum set of one bass and two tenors.
