Anyone making taylor bore chanters?
Ive made the Shannon Taylor chanter from the David Quinn cds but am having trouble reeding it. The only thing that had any degree of succcess was a flat reed for a c chanter. Not great though. Is anyone here making taylor bores and could they share reed data please.

I think you may be on your own on this one Bob. It takes a lot of patience to make your own reamers as your are doing, so I wouldn't expect many folks are as patient as you are . I have though about having a custom reamer made from those specs from Quinn's Disk or the Sean Reid Disks, but I haven't had enough feedback from people actually playing chanters based on these bores to gamble spending the money to have a custom reamer made. I use one single, straight tapered reamer, to make C, B, Bb chanters, and tenor and baritone regs. All with one reamer. Seth
