===Bagpipes===
Davis was interested in [[pipe band]] music during his youth, which prefigured later Korn's use of bagpipes in several songs.<ref name="LW BGP">{{cite web|url=https://loudwire.com/jonathan-davis-star-trek-inspired-bagpipes/|title=Jonathan Davis interview at the Musicians Institute in Los Angeles|website=Loudwire.|date=September 13, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200325153545/https://loudwire.com/jonathan-davis-star-trek-inspired-bagpipes/|archive-date=March 25, 2020|access-date=March 25, 2020}}</ref>{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=18}} His great-grandmother was from [[Scotland]] and played pipe records for him.<ref name="LW BGP"/>{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=18}} Davis was also inspired to play the [[bagpipes]] by a scene in the 1982 film ''[[Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan]]'', in which the character [[Scotty (Star Trek)|Mr. Scott]] played "[[Amazing Grace]]" on the [[Great Highland bagpipe]]s at the funeral of [[Mr. Spock]].

Davis's enthusiasm led his grandmother to give him his first set of bagpipes, then he began by joining the [[Highland High School (Bakersfield, California)|Highland High School]] pipe band, and taking lessons from the band's Scottish conductor.{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=18}} Shortly afterwards he went to a qualified teacher, who went to Scotland and learned.{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=18}} Davis started competing after that, across the United States at established gigs.{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=18}} When the band were ready to record their first album of original material, they realized that something was missing during the recording of the song "[[Shoots and Ladders]]".{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=50}} What had begun as "a joke" turned out to be nothing less than an atypical element in the song,{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=50}} and would eventually become the first Korn song to feature a Highland bagpipe.{{efn|Following the release of ''[[Korn (album)|Korn]]''{{'}}s self titled debut album—recorded with his bagpipe trophies by his side—the singer would have two credits after his name in [[Music magazine|magazines]]: ''Jonathan Davis-Vocals & Bagpipes'', also: ''Jonathan Davis-Vocalist/Bagpiper''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.metalkingdom.net/album/Korn-Korn-109532|title=Line-up (members) – Jonathan Davis : Vocals, Bagpipes|website=Metal Kingdom.|date=October 11, 1994|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200327150854/https://www.metalkingdom.net/album/Korn-Korn-109532|archive-date=March 27, 2020|access-date=March 27, 2020}}</ref>{{sfn|Furman|2000|p=50}}}}<ref>{{cite web|url=https://loudwire.com/top-50-korn-songs-ranked/|title=The Top 50 Korn Songs, Ranked|website=Loudwire.|date=September 13, 2019|url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20200325154340/https://loudwire.com/top-50-korn-songs-ranked/|archive-date=March 25, 2020|access-date=March 25, 2020}}</ref>

Of Davis's composition with Korn, Kelsey Chapstick commented in ''[[Revolver (magazine)|Revolver Magazine]]'',
{{blockquote|text="The bagpipe intro to 'Shoots and Ladders' was captured with Davis playing outside the studio, walking away from the mic [ ... ] While the bagpipe wails that open the song might like they were recorded on top of a mountain, Davis actually played them while walking past the back door of the studio while the microphone stayed stationary, giving the impression of a faraway player fading into the distance."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.revolvermag.com/music/korns-self-titled-album-10-things-you-didnt-know-nu-metals-first-shot|title=Lowrider (War Cover)|last=Chapsitck|first=Kelsey|website=Revolver Magazine.|date=October 11, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200327174247/https://www.revolvermag.com/music/korns-self-titled-album-10-things-you-didnt-know-nu-metals-first-shot|archive-date=March 27, 2020|access-date=March 27, 2020}}</ref>|author=|title=|source=}}

Davis does not want to make prominent use of the woodwind instrument and avoids what he worries might be gimmicked or over-use of the pipes. He clarified: "it depends the song, if I'm feeling like there's a spot where I could use it".<ref name="LW BGP"/> Korn's repertoire containing Davis's bagpipes includes, "[[Shoots and Ladders]]", "[[Low Rider]]" (a cover of the song by funk rock band [[War (American band)|War]]) from Korn's album'' [[Life Is Peachy|Life is Peachy]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.metalkingdom.net/lyrics-song/Korn-Lowrider-%28War-Cover%29-142897|title=Lowrider (War Cover)|website=Metal Kingdom.|date=December 15, 1996|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200327172159/https://www.metalkingdom.net/lyrics-song/Korn-Lowrider-(War-Cover)-142897|archive-date=March 27, 2020|access-date=March 27, 2020}}</ref> Bagpipes are also heard on "My Gift To You", "Dead", "Let's Do This Now", "10 or a 2-Way", "Open Up", "Liar", "Seen It All", "I Will Protect You", "Lead The Parade", "Spike In My Veins", "Bleeding Out", and "The End Begins".<ref>{{cite AV media |people=Keys Inside|date=January 2, 2016|title=KoRn – All Bagpipes Parts|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibDRIhJF8SM |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211212/ibDRIhJF8SM| archive-date=December 12, 2021 |url-status=live|access-date=May 23, 2020|via=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}</ref> On November 15, 1999, at the [[Apollo Theater]] concert, the [[NYPD Pipes and Drums]] corps opened the show with "Dead".{{sfn|Paquet|2002|p=27}} On July 23, 1999, Davis performed his bagpipe routine in front of more than 250,000 attendees during the Korn concert at the ''[[Woodstock '99|Woodstock Festival]]'' in New York in a long weekend of anarchy and uproar.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/top-six-musical-moments-at-woodstock-99-91311/|title=Top Six Musical Moments at Woodstock '99|last1=Eliscu|first1=Jenny|last2=Rosenthal|first2=Joe|website=Rolling Stone.|date=July 26, 1999|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200327182238/https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/top-six-musical-moments-at-woodstock-99-91311/|archive-date=March 27, 2020|access-date=March 27, 2020}}</ref>
