I've been playing the bard class a lot and I have some ideas/recommendations if that is okay.
Can you change the bagpipe sound? I love the item and how it works, but the sound, especially in multiplayer is so bad that people don't want you to use it near them. Maybe make it play a more harmonic set of tones or a short repeatable tune? Along with that, could you add a sound for the tuning fork? It seems a little lame to not have a sound for that.
A few other suggestions mostly related to accessories and armor:
The number of armor tiers is somewhat lacking, with there being a large gap between the first hard mode armor and the post-plantera armor. An inbetween tier maybe made using a mechanical boss drop would be great!
Accessories are sorely lacking. I feel like every accessory is essentially necessary and certain accessories feel pretty lame. The bard ring and the marching boots are both very important but the fact that the marching boots can't be upgraded makes them worthless once you get the goblin tinkerer. If there was a way to combine the spectre boots (or the upgraded version) with the matching boots, this would make the item much more usable in the late game. Along with that, the weapon damage and dps is tied almost directly to using the +4 damage ring. If there was something the ring could be upgraded into that also made the ring do something interesting, such as causing inspiration drops to be attracted to you (maybe using the celestial magnet), it could be a more interesting item.
I would also love a tier above the upgrade for the instrument accessories - if you could upgrade them again using a hard mode or later item, maybe giving them new functionality such as more projectiles for woodwinds or chain-reaction sparks for brass instruments. I feel that doing this could heavily expand upon the accessories in hard mode.
I realize this was a long post, but I hope I may have provided some decent ideas and that my feedback is useful since I understand that the bard class is being actively developed. Thanks for reading

Any feedback from anyone would be nice.
