Gerry held the position of piping instructor at the United States Military Academy at West Point from 1999 till 2007.
Gerry has a Masters Degree and eighteen years experience in industrial technology. Coupling these skills with his knowledge of piping led to the formation of Pipeline Bagpipes. One of the world's finest sounding and most technically innovative bagpipes. Pipeline's program of continuing research and development, state of the art production facilities, and highly skilled craftsmen (all of whom are top level players) guarantee a bagpipe whose drones have a beautiful, full rich mellow tone, and a chanter that is crisp and clear on every note, bagpipe after bagpipe, after bagpipe. All Pipeline Bagpipes are manufactured in Glasgow Scotland.
