I think I have this straight now .... So when you all get together do you mostly have the F+chanter and set and can get near in tuning to each other at least in a F# kind of tonic ???? . The great pictures of all those great players in the 50's sitting together is that the chanter they are using (F+) ?? .. Were they playing this F+ chanter you have been takling about and playing the charts as if they were in G ?? THe modern G major chanter is smaller yet and not as popular ( but more popular then the D chanter) Is this all correct??


All the best , Guy
