Identical types: 19

On the website described as "An electronic bagpipe (MIDI controller) with a USB connection that does not need extra batteries"; According to Paul Miller (NB: ➺ Electronic pipes, Sources) it is "available in right- or left-hand versions" (➺ p.30) and "has a soft bag, about half the length of a conventional bag, enough to hold under the arm and keep the chanter in a conventional playing position but it has no other function. Since there is no bag pressure, it sounds by covering an extra right-hand thumbhole" (➺ p.32); According to Wikipedia the instrument is "artisanally created under demand by José J. Presedo [and has been in development for more than a decade spawning several iterations ...]".
