'music makers' is the definition.
(spinet is a kind of musical instrument)

'leg appears in sets' is the wordplay.
'leg' becomes 'pin' (pin is a kind of leg).
'appears in' is an insertion indicator.
'pin' going within 'sets' is 'SPINETS'.

'of old' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
