Most favorite colour combination speckled pale green and faded pink. When it comes to wood I am far more interested in the colours of the wood itself, prefering oils and varnish that brings forth the grain and ring colouration, some woods burnished is lovely.
I don’t mean to be a shmimble but every modern drum with tape and tuners are trying to be like a Seamus Okane but their head systems are so tight their all restrictive in their echoing sustain.
Well that's pretty much it. He started the craze but I've found a few differences, and most of them lay in 3 areas: The bearing Edge and how each maker prepares it I find determines a lot of the "pop" sounds. Couple that with the skin prep and profile of the tuning rim. One of the best tuning rims I played was on an old Waltons, but the skin was average. A reskinning fixed that drum and I sold it a year later after it was broken in. The last area would be how much space sits between tuning rim and the frame. You'd be surprised some drums have a lot of space between them.
Yes! Well built. Very beautiful to look at as well. Skins are good quality and the family is one of a few who recently got into adding bodhran to their lineup of drums.
We;; yes and no. I used a few custom made tippers and a few tippers you can buy readily from a music store. For the factory tippers, I use a LOS CABOS Sean Mcann tipper. It's a bit light so I added weight to it, but it belts and it is easy to control. As for other tippers, my dowel tippers are from Steve Moises [snakewood tippers] and from a Canadian man named Jim hunter at Hunter Tippers. He's out of the Ottawa Valley region and he made my Lugnum Vitae and Pink Ivory [it's a wood species] tippers. They are amazing. I also use a long rod 28CM poplar dowel tipper that I made while trying to nail the Ronan O Snodaigh sound.

I think I'm going to get myself a Meinl 18",a McNeela 16"/18",and a Hedwitschak 16"/18"
Maybe a Vignoles Bodhran too
@@DavidB.Rockin Vignoles are amazing value and build well. Mike's a cool dude.
Great video! Any thoughts on Ben March bodhrans?
GET ONE as they are...fantastic
Have you played Shaw percussion Bodhrans?
Yes! Well built. Very beautiful to look at as well. Skins are good quality and the family is one of a few who recently got into adding bodhran to their lineup of drums.
Hey there, do you have a list of tippers that you utilize?
We;; yes and no. I used a few custom made tippers and a few tippers you can buy readily from a music store. For the factory tippers, I use a LOS CABOS Sean Mcann tipper.
