Description
Dear Prospective Customer,
Hiring a bagpiper may be a once in a life time event for you and your family. If not, then you may already have an idea as to what the pipes are supposed to sound like when they are played well. The Bagpiper market is represented by people with vast experience and people with no experience. As a bagpipe teacher, a lot of my students sometimes feel that when they get a set of pipes and a kilt, they are ready to play gigs. Nothing could be further from the truth. I make a nice living, playing, teaching and selling bagpipes. I also have a network of bagpipers who I have qualified to represent my business. The bid that I submit to you, will be fairly priced giving you the best quality musical performers in the area. It's not the fancy kilt or the horse haired sporran that you will remember years after the event, but how the pipes made you feel when you heard them. Badly played bagpipes are often remembered the longest. Classical musicians often joke that the bagpipe is not a musical instrument and that bagpipers weren't musicians. My Collegues and I are classical musicians that play this instrument. I hope you make a wise decision and hire us for your next event.

Feedback
- Everything we wanted, Gary gave to us. Gary gave me a preview of music via telephone a week before the wedding, so that I could be 100% sure of what I wanted. All of our guests, and even the guests of another wedding, enjoyed Gary's music very much. The quality of his music was perfect both indoors and out. I would recommend Gary for any special event. Thank you Gary, for being a part of our big day. You are terrific!!!

- Very pleased with Mr. Guth's performance. He was one of the highlights of the ceremony and I would strongly recommend his services to anyone looking for a bagpiper for thier event. He was on time, played well and delivered an excellent overall performance.

- He was a hit. The person being honored was very pleased. -- Rebecca I, Washington Crossing, PA, 5/2/2008
- Gary was on time, looked fantastic and without giving him much direction on where to go, he fit right in!
It set the tone for the entire reception, his bagpipes were beautiful and everyone loved them. He is very talented and is very professional. He is your man if you want to a man play the bagpipes at your wedding.
