The
bag has been designed with
dedicated
piper's requirements in mind.
The
control over moisture, stability of
tone,
longevity of reeds, comfort and
hygiene
is unequalled, as can be verified by pipers of all standards throughout
the world. The basic concept of the breathable canister bag system, is
that the air must pass through the canister filled with drying granules
prior to reaching the reeds. This canister system, combined with the breathable
bag, offers pipers the best available means of controlling moisture, which
means much greater stability of tone and longevity of reeds. |

| The
canister, which is the major part of the entire system, is accessible via
the air-tight zip fitted along the bottom seam of the bag. A reserve canister
is supplied with each bag for quick change over situations. This can be
done quickly by unzipping the bag, and exchanging the used canister with
the spare, then rezipping the bag and continuing on with your playing.The
granules are reusable indefinitely, by drying them out in a microwave oven
for a few minutes. Through the use of the zip, the bag can also be left
open to dry out after long sessions of playing and particularly playing
in cold and/or damp conditions. |

Now
used as part of the Ross Canister Bag, the air-tight zip makes the task
of opening and sealing the bag as simple and convenient as it can get.
The zip is a totally tried and tested product for over 40 years now. They
are used extensively in very testing conditions, where the demands are
very much greater than in bagpipe bags, so one can rest assured that we
are using a highly reliable zip which IS Absolutely air-tight. The Zipped
Bags are available in 3 sizes, small, medium or large, and also can be
made to measure for those pipers wanting a specific size. |
