Asking a musician if you can use their instrument is not something to be taken lightly. Musical instruments, good ones, often cost hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars. To use one in a skit for some kind of unspecified joke could subject it to possible irreparable damage. Best you follow advice from above. Also make an obviously fake bag pipe and get a few folks to surreptitiously stand behind bagpiper and hum like bagpipes for another gag.
Good luck with the show.
