Peter, the pickled-pepper picker (5)
I believe the answer is:

'peter the pickled-pepper picker' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for piper that I've seen before include "If you pay him, call the tune" , "Wind instrumentalist" , "Highland instrumentalist" , "Musician sometimes paid (or pied!)" , "English painter and stained glass designer, d. 1992" .)
