Tone
This stunning bodhrán comes in our best selling size. 16 inches is a great all rounder size that suits every stature of player, without compromising on tone. The 16" Ashwood Tunable Bodhrán offers a wide tonal range, which gives you a great variety of sounds to work with.
This isn't your average bodhrán. It produces our characteristic rich, deep tone yet also retains a softness and warmth that means it won't dominate in a group musical setting. Taped around the edges for clarity of tone, this is the perfect non-intrusive instrument for playing in Irish music sessions.
Tuning System
This bodhrán features McNeela's trademark tuning system. This six point allen key tuning system allows both bodhrán and player to reach their full potential and offers unbeatable tone control, making the 16" Ashwood Tunable Bodhrán the perfect bodhrán to play in any and every situation.
Smart Finish
With its beautifully finished Ashwood frame, and carefully treated goat skin, this is a bodhrán made for life, that looks as good as it sounds. It's guaranteed to turn heads at any session.
Goat Skin:
The skin is the most important part of the bodhrán. That's why we only use the best goat skins.
Our skins are sustainably sourced from healthy animals, carefully selected and examined for quality. They produce great depth of sound and are easy to tune.
We've done many blind tests and the results are staggering. Even non-bodhrán players can tell the difference between a good quality skin and a poor one - it's that obvious!
Our skins are naturally hand-cured in lime, which gives that all-important bass tone, then 'pickled' to close up the pores and finally stretched and left to sun dry, achieving a lovely clean bleached finish.
