RT Shepherd and Son (Scotland) Ltd are manufacturers of fine Bagpipes, Smallpipes, Pipe Chanters, Reeds, Tone Enhancers and a range of other Piping Accessories. Serving a global marketplace since 1966 our products are played by those who demand perfection.
At the World Pipe Band Championships as well as other major championships in recent years, the combination of Shepherd Chanters and Reeds has been the predominant product of choice by successful bands throughout all 8 competitive grades. The Grade 1 World Championship title has been won every year from 2001 through 2007 by a band playing Shepherd Chanters and Reeds.
As well as the pipe band market, you will also find our products heavily used on the solo piping circuit, and for the true enthusiast we compliment our range with Smallpipes and our brand new Highland Musette.
We have provided for your pleasure a few recordings, all featuring a range of Shepherd products. The recording of the World Pipe Band Championships is used with permission of KRL Records and PM Malcolm MacKenzie. Available to buy online.
