Miklos, there is a bodhran maker in Ireland who has a web site that you can reach through a link in this month's issue of the online magazine "Ireland's Eye". I bought my excellent bodhran here in the US (over the phone) from a company called Stringed Instrument Division, (onlinr at http://montana.com/instruments). It came with a soft case, a tipper, and was under $100. Great deal for a beginner, and sounds and looks great.
