text: A practice chanter consists of three parts: (1) the chanter proper, which in outside shape, size and fingerhole location closely matches a regular pipe chanter but which has a narrow bore which lowers both the pitch (one octave) and the volume compared to a bagpipe chanter; (2) a reed, similar to a regular chanter reed but much softer and today usually made of a synthetic (and thus stable) material; (3) a reed-cap and blowpipe, which attaches to the chanter and is long enough to place the chanter (and thus the hands) in roughly the same position that a bagpipe chanter is in when played.
