Any electric or electronic type of a single bagpipe chanter, usually provided with a device that allows a choice between several simulated sounds, incl. the matching drone(s), plus standard auxiliary equipment such as an ear- or headphone, &c. Some factories include additional or optional features (e.g. adjustable volume and pitch, a built-in metronome, &c.); NB¹: In electric instruments sensors pick up the natural vibrations of the reed(s) directly, whereas electronic instruments require a connection with external devices; NB²: According to Wikipedia, "electric bagpipes are a rare, experimental instrument", adding that "No commercial instruments are currently [i.e. 2025; ws] known to be in production"; NB³: According to Alan Douglas, »The electronic musical instrument manual: A guide to theory and design« (London [?], 1962), p.77, "electronic bagpipes have been attested as early as 1962"; NB⁴: George H. Boyd, a pioneer whose system, although not as easily portable as the Bazpipe, produced an authentic "bagpipe" sound. He also developed the first electronic Uilleann pipe, but only made one prototype.
