I imagine the input portion( proper nomincalture ?) of a bagpipe can get pretty scummy after awhile.

Not sure how to clean a bagpipe, but I use a bipap machine for my sleep apnea and it gets washed daily for a reason.

Exactly why I don’t play bagpipes.

I have a horse with a similar condition. Prednisolone is all but ineffective. But dexamethasone yielded dramatic results. Both were administered along with Albuterol.

Friend of mind worked in a local music store while in high school. He said that part of their service was to clean instruments. Trumpets, trombones, and other brass instruments were disgusting. They would take apart the valves, then put rinse the the instruments with a spray of hot, soapy water. He said the black stuff that came out of some of them was horrid. They would always discard the reeds and replace them, the most difficult reeds being the oboe reeds because many of the players did not like commercial reeds and carved their own.

I'm not certain how you'd clean bagpipes.

Should have taken up the Uilleann pipes. Safer.

They played bagpipes at his funeral which will kill off another bagpipe player and on and on.
