And for your next trick get one of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombard_(music)
When they say that "Describing it as an oboe, however, can be misleading since it has a very powerful sound, ..." is an understatement. Everyone on the block will know when you are practicing. These things don't need an amplifier - a silencer would be more appropriate. If you hate your neighbours and are deaf, buy one for their children. Louder, shriller and cheaper than bagpipes.
