The Tuneable Rawal bodhran drum is essential for any musician starting out or even advanced drummers. The benefit of a tuneable bodhran is you can change the pitch to how you want it to sound with a small key, meaning the depth of the drum sound can be as loud, low, or high as you would like. The large Tuneable Rawal bodhran drum comes with a carry case made by Percussions Plus and a beater. The frame of the drum is incredibly sturdy and lightweight so you don't strain yourself carrying it to festivals, drum marching, or to your brand practice. The bodhran is an Irish frame drum that is similar to the tambourine, it can be played with the supplied beater or your hands, or you could make your own wooden beater if you prefer.
