A lot of great recommendations, however I would add a high recommendation for John Walsh's new Scottish smallpipes in A, not to be confused with his "shuttlepipes" in A. His newly designed smallpipes in A are terrific- sort of ugly in that they're made of delrin, but come right in tune out of the box (all plastic reeds) and have a wonderful, classic smallpipe sound (the drones sound A E A). The trouble with most SSP is that they are a bit too quiet, but these can be heard well with a fiddle and guitar and I have used them in this combination for on-stage performance with great results.
