An unequalled competitive record. When Les started the company in 1976, almost immediately David Naill products were enthusiastically embraced by the piping community. He become known for producing bagpipes and smallpipes with precision tooling and unequalled craftsmanship. Both bagpipes and chanters were coveted by high-level competitors. The Naill chanter became the choice of the vast majority of solo pipers, and from the 1970s to present day, most solo prizes in top competitions have been won on Naill chanters. Year after year the reputations of many current masters were molded on these exceptional instruments.
