Crafted with passion in Derry City 

Welcome to The Bodhran Stands Company, where tradition meets innovation. Discover the story behind our handcrafted bespoke bodhrán stands & beaters and our commitment to quality and sound.

Our inspiration and unique craftsmanship

The journey of The Bodhran Stands began over 35 years ago with a deep appreciation for Irish music and the desire to enhance the bodhrán playing experience. We were inspired to create beaters that offer unparalleled control and tonal versatility. Our craftsmanship is special because we integrate a unique, movable reed band into each beater, allowing players to effortlessly shift tones and unlock new sonic possibilities. Every beater is meticulously handcrafted in Derry, ensuring precision, balance, and durability.

The joy of creation and connection

What we love most about creating these beaters is the tangible impact they have on musicians. There's immense satisfaction in knowing that a tool we crafted helps someone express themselves through music. Seeing our beaters in the hands of passionate players, witnessing them explore new rhythms and melodies, and hearing their feedback about the improved versatility, is incredibly rewarding. It’s a connection between maker and musician that fuels our passion every day.

Our commitment to quality and artistry

When crafting our beaters and running our business, the most important aspects are quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction. We are committed to using only the finest materials and employing traditional craftsmanship techniques, combined with our unique movable band design, to ensure each beater is a work of art and a superior musical instrument. We strive for excellence in every detail and aim to provide an exceptional experience for every customer. Your musical journey is our priority.Comes will a lifetime guarantee.
