Yes, I have searched the Forum.

I was asked just today what the Great IRISH Warpipes looked like. I emphasize Irish because the person asking did. Did they have blowpipes? Or use the armpit bellows other Irish pipes use? How many drones and chanters?

No, I don't know the reason for the question as the asker was an Afghan refugee.

As far as I know they're similar to the highighland pipes but with just two drones and a saffron cover on the bag.

We don't really know. Something in the same family as the Highland pipes or some Spanish pipes. Much of what's written about them derives from Grattan Flood, who could write utter bollocks with unmatched confidence.

Definitely mouthblown anyway.
