Perfect size for crowded sessions. Solid build and great sound. A louder than I thought it would be. Thoughtfully constructed. Thank you McNeela for another superior instrument.

I'm a beginner, so I chose the 14" non-tunable bodhran. I love the drum and the fact that it came with a case. The service was excellent. I was surprised and pleased how quickly the order was processed and the drum made its way from Ireland to Arizona. I especially enjoy and appreciate the follow-up emails with tips on playing and practicing, and the history of the instrument and Celtic music.

Shipping was swift and drum arrived safe and sound, despite traveling through intense winter storms. It is all that I wanted and more. Really sturdy, yet not heavy, and so well made, able to handle the enthusiasm of a twelve year old. Perfect size for a crowded pub session, tucks neatly under my arm if I am sitting and doesn’t intrude upon the singers, but enhances their lilt (I like to think anyway). Yet it’s voice is strong! This can be a very loud drum, certainly holds it own even with pipers in the session. A giant of a small drum, it’s name is now McCool.

My non-tunable bodhran is fun to play and seems to be an excellent quality drum. For a beginner such as myself, it was the perfect price, quality, and size.

I’m in the US and recently purchased a 14” non-tunable bodhran. I play mountain dulcimer with a couple of folk music groups and am interested in joining jam sessions with percussion. My purchase was very easy to do and the bodhran arrived well within the projected delivery dates, exceptionally well-packaged. I think my bodhran is well made and sounds rich. I’m excited to learn to play!

It was worth the wait. I'm so happy I got it from the source in Ireland. It makes a nice sound!
