Subject: RE: Help: Bodhran buying for beginner
Marcus Music nr Newport (Tredegar House I think) either way it would be nearer for you, they need the trade.
Gert in Bristol makes them (in a really tasty shade of red if you want) I will post the tel numbers when my watch is tanked up again. Gert is a Bodhran specialist, its his business.
I would give you the tel number but looking at my telememo watch (call me a poser) and selecting tel numbers it tells me that the battery has finally gone flat after 7 years, does nothing last these days?.
Marcus are a friendly crew and go to larger festivals. They made my tuneable and I rang from NZ and insisted they made it in Red in time for Bromyard. Without a murmur their comment was "what shade of red. sir?" Try that at some places and you get "wot they got, OK?". Tell them I recommended them.
