The Wave Bodhrán

"My Wave Set arrived today and it is a religious experience" - Christopher S.

I am really delighted and very proud to bring you the new and improved McNeela Wave Bodhrán! It’s a bit of a show stopper and bound to stand out in a crowd.

The Wave’s unique and innovative undulating rim looks like no other bodhrán and plays like no other bodhrán; the sound it produces will send tingles down your spine...

Limited Time: You also get lifetime access to the full Rónán Ó Snodaigh Masterclass, with expert instruction that grows with you.

Bonus: Includes a complete beater set, a padded gig bag, and priority shipping worldwide.

"When I first saw my Wave bodhrán, I thought 'what an amazing piece of craftsmanship' and when I played it, I had goosebumps on my arms. I feel like a surfer who has finally completed the search for 'the perfect Wave'." - Neil J.

WAVE BODHRÁN

Product highlights

Choice of Skin

The waved rim is designed to enhance your playing experience. Its unique shape lets you access the entire drumhead, allowing you to test different areas of the skin. Hand-selected Vellum goatskin or Lambeg skin brings out the best in your bodhrán. Goatskin offers a warm bass, while Lambeg delivers bright, crisp highs that cut through any session. Want to take it even further? You can double skin your bodhrán at no extra charge, giving you deeper tone, longer sustain, and greater volume. Over time, these natural skins only get better, evolving with your playing and giving your music a truly authentic feel.

“For me the Wave was the right choice because the undulating rim causes less strain on the arm and wrist inside the drum”

Stay In Tune Always

With eight easy-to-use hand tuners, you’re in complete control of your bodhrán’s sound. Whether the room is hot, cold, humid, or dry, you can adjust the tension to keep your tone perfect all night. No need to worry about temperature changes or humidity affecting your performance. These tuners are especially handy during stage work, letting you make quick adjustments on the fly so your sound stays crisp and consistent, wherever you play.

What's Included?

The McNeela Wave bodhrán set comes with all the essentials to get you playing right away. Along with your beautifully crafted bodhrán, you’ll receive a set of premium beaters, each designed to bring out different tones and rhythms, so you can explore a range of sounds. A durable, padded gig bag is also included, perfect for protecting your instrument when you’re on the go. Plus, you’ll get exclusive access to online masterclasses from Rónán Ó Snodaigh, guiding you from beginner to expert. It’s everything you need to start playing with confidence.

NB. From time to time we may need to replace a beater with another beater of equal or greater value
