Charlie Costellos bodhran

This bodhran was made for Charlie Costello, Colorado USA, a fine professional drummer. The drum is made from ash, with outer layer of nice flamed maple. The celtic pattern is carved out by hand. The decorative wood is african afselia. The drum also has a special tuning system inside the drum.

This drum has its inspirational roots in the norwegian hardingfiddle, a special fiddle with understrings. On this drum there is also a string inside the drum that can be tuned to the sound of the drum.
