Need help : The Peterson's grade

[Wild chicken]

I am usually confused about the grade of Peterson's pipes ( pre republic). I only know the highest grade is straight grian, and the second is supreme. But I don't know the others. I have met so many grade of Peterson's pipes. Such as Premier, Dublin and Kapet. I know nothing about them. Who know the grade of Peterson's pipes. Please help me. Thank you.

Peterson Grading? :: British Pipes

Do any of you know the ranking of Peterson grades. I have Premier, Premier Selection, Supreme, DeLuxe, etc and would like to know the order of the grades from top to bottom (or vice versa)if you so choose. Thanks. Mike
