Michael Dow Bellows

Posted '23

Large size bellows by Michael Dow. These well crafted bellows are very highly rated by their users for the ability to deliver a strong flow of air to allow greater ease of playing, very useful in long sessions. Unfortunately for me, the size, weight and arm placement aggravate a preexisting pinched nerve, so they have hardly been used in the two or three years since I ought them. I am asking $570. Willing to send to a buyer in the USA or wait until the Pipers’ Gathering. You can check out Michael’s web site for pictures, information, users’ comments, and latest price at archcarving.com.

$700
