The standard bellows is a more affordable alternative to the premium model, while maintaining the functionality and quality associated with O Riabhaigh uilleann pipes. They are comfortable, attractive and airtight, but differ from the premium model in two ways.

​

1. Instead of the robust stainless steel hinge, this        bellows employs the more common leather hinge.

​

2. The cushioned pads, for the protection of the elbow and hip bones are loose, detachable items.

​

Other than that, the two models are pretty much the same and the standard type offers the customer who may be on a tighter budget, a quality product at a reduced price.
