SUCCESS WITH STRATHMORE BAGPIPES

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

2006 was a particularly successful year in competition for Strathmore, justifying Murray Henderson’s strong desire for quality.

Murray himself won the Clasp at The Northern Meeting, using a full set of Strathmore Bagppipes.

Angus MacColl, using a Strathmore chanter won the 2006 Glenfiddich Championship.

Greg Wilson, using a Strathmore chanter won the Oban Gold medal and was  runner-up in the 2006 Glenfiddich Championship .

Richard Hawke using a Strathmore Chanter won the Dunvegan Gold Medal.

Celtic Traditions has sold a number of sets of Strathmore Bagpipes over the past year and will continue to specialise in this brand because of the quality and value in which Murray Henderson places so much store.  Give us a call and ask for more information on these superb bagpipes.
