What Our Customers Say

Stirling Bagpipes is a globally recognised maker and repairer of Scottish Traditional Bagpipes and has been mentioned in untold newspapers, magazines and even TV productions. With its unique retail shop and workshop, it has even attracted the interest of global tourist guides.

“I was looking for a new set of bagpipes and was in all the bagpipe shops in Glasgow and online. I had almost settled for one, until I came to Alan’s shop. With the warmest welcome and enthusiasm, which Alan brings to work, it was a change from the usual modern shops.

Trying out a set of Alan’s pipes, the sound was incredible. Having completely customised my bagpipes to my personal preference, with Alan’s professional opinions, I have a set of bagpipes I am prod of and love to play.

Since first stepping into the shop, it is the only shop I go to now for all my bagpipe needs. I recommend Alan’s services of bagpipe making and restoration to everyone. It is rare to find a shop owner with such pride in his work and high regard for customer interest.”

“Alan's shop in Stirling has provided me and my fellow band members, with the opportunity to purchase quality goods at low prices and without the need to travel to Glasgow or Edinburgh.

The craftsmanship and professionalism in his repairs and refurbishments are of the highest quality and I would certainly recommend that anyone looking for this to be done, should pay a visit to Stirling Bagpipes.”
