I purchased the 14" McNeela non-tuneable bodhrán in September 2020 for my son, as he is a beginner. The teachers at St. Joseph's Boys N.S. in Cork City, teach the 5th & 6th class boys how to play the bodhrán; hence, the instrument has a long-standing tradition at this school. There is a fantastic tone from my son's bodhrán , it is absolutely durable and came at a very reasonable price. Many of the parents; having seen my son's instrument, went ahead & purchased the McNeela bodhrán for their boys. We have no regrets & are very happy with such an excellent product. Keep the shovel tipping Paraic ! Ger Tobin, Ballincollig, Cork.

A really good bodhran at a very reasonable price. Very well-built instrument, which sounds and plays great. I'm fussy about percussion so I don't say this lightly. Unless you have a working relationship with some well-regarded bodhran craftsman already, if you are looking for a simple non-tunable model (I never use the tuning mechanisms anyway) then develop a working relationship with McNeela as they've been building first-rate drums for years. You can't and won't be sorry. Comes with a tipper which i'm not as crazy about; good tippers are easier to make or just order one from McNeela as they have some nice ones. Perhaps you'll love the supplied tipper, stranger things happen in music. What is certain is this is probably the best drum in its price range I'm ever going to see. They even supplied a nice case. Go for it.
