Grubby Bodhran Making - A Tale Of Woe (43) RE: Bodhran Making - A Tale Of Woe 27 Apr 98


Marc I know the Bodhran you mean I owned one once. OK for getting started, but if you want to play seriously you should be looking to upgrade. Try applying a small amount of water to the skin before you commence playing (refer previous discussions in this thread) Because the skin on those Pakistan drums are so thin you will find it will continue to dry out while plasying, due to the heat from your hands. Just keep the water up to it. If you want a deeper sound replace the skin with a thicker one. I am afraid there is not much else you can do. They are what they are a $50.00 Bodhran

Regards Grubby
