Make Your Own Bodhrán - D.I.Y. Bodhrán Kit
Can there be anything more satisfying than crafting your own instrument?
It's a creative process that can only bring increased playing satisfaction knowing that you've made it with your own two hands.
We want you to enjoy that process that we've been very lucky to be a part of for so long so we've put together everything you need to make your very own bodhrán.
Presenting the McNeela bodhrán making kit ...
The pack includes:
1 x 16" (depth approx. 4") plywood rim - unstained and unvarnished.
Cross bar
1 x 20" top quality goatskin.
1 x beater.
Webbing 56" long.
12 studs.
Elastic band.
Written Instruction Sheet.
You can see detailed video instructions with Paraic himself by clicking here
We also highly recommend adding to cart our new bodhrán cream, DrumDiddly, as a luxurious finishing touch for the goatskin. This cream contains beeswax and lanolin and guarantees to deepen the bass tone on the bodhrán and extend the life of the skin.

“Easy to order from site. Full information about shipping, carriers and fees. The Bodhran kits are well made, fun to work on, have good sound and look great when finished. Take mine to all the demonstrations.”

“This was a present for my nephew who has a love of all sorts of musical instruments. However up until now that has mainly been the making and playing of stringed instruments. He was delighted to receive this and very pleased to be able to make it himself and play it. Service and delivery was excellent.”

“Loved the process of putting this Bodhrán together. I was a bit nervous about the tuning, but it turned out fine. Now I would like a tuneable Bodhrán kit as well Mr. Mcneela!”

“This was a really fun project. After watching the video I did as close to that as I could. My drum turned out super nice and I think it has real good tone. Thank you for a great drum.”

“I bought this kit for my husband as a birthday gift and it arrived quickly (Ireland to US). He's put it together with no issues and is enjoying learning to play. He stained the wood as shown in the photos. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in playing who also likes to DIY!”
