Product Description
The bodhran is the traditional Celtic drum and provides the vital pulse of Celtic music even in modern times. It is played with a double beater that allows one hand to produce complex rhythms, while the other hand adds tonal expression by muting or applying tension to the inside surface of the head.
Customer Rating: Summary: For a beginner... Comment: this is a good sounding drum. I bought this for my husband, who use to play drums, because he was interested in the bodhran. The rim is sturdy, and the skin looks to be in good condition, no thinning in places and it's nice and tight. If the hubby sticks with it, then I'll get him a more expensive drum. But as it stands, this will be a good practice/learner drum.

Customer Rating: Summary: hairs? Comment: thought I should practice 'til the hairs wore off, then think I might be a drummer...
Customer Rating: Summary: Nice tone Comment: This drum seems to have a nice tone to it, and it's obvious that the head is made from real animal skin... at some point I need to shave the hairs off it! (ick) Seems to be very sturdy, too.
