Hello Amy,

While, as Andrew pointed out, grace note beaming in general may leave
something to be desired, the special bagpipe grace ornaments are a case of
their own:
Each of them has been specially defined in bagpipe.ly and I agree that the
spacing of \grip isn't very balanced because the second G "slips" below the
d far above.

But, fortunately, this can be corrected by just providing a custom
definition of \grip: when applying some extra \stemspace, everything can be
shifted to obtain a more balanced look. This has been done in some standard
definitions, it hasn't been done for \grip, though.

After including "bagpipe.ly", you can change/add whatever you want, e.g.:

  grip  = { \pgrace { G32[ \stemspace #'(0 . 0.4) d G] } }

\stemspace in this case just adds a bit of space to the right of the middle
stem.

And that's what it looks like (comparing n the original/adapted spacing):
