Beginners guide

You've made three separate threads looking for advice on the bodhrán. The forum, while does have posters, isn't what I'd call "highly active. That, and the bodhrán is a VERY niche instrument outside Ireland and other areas where Celtic music is prominent (Scotland, Atlantic Canada, New England, etc.). Making a new thread every day or two won't get you information faster. There may be someone here who has experience with the bodhrán, but if you're looking for a fast answer you may have better luck in a forum or social media group dedicated to Celtic instruments.

Hi Bridget, I just shared some of my experience on your Bodhran thread. I'm guessing you're one of our newer and perhaps younger members? That's a very Celtic sounding name you have too, have you grown up in Ireland? I was born in England but half my family are Scottish which is where my folk music influences lie.

There's lots of great advice to be found here and always something new to be learned. Much of it is around guitars, synths, effects and music production so I welcome a bit of musical diversity.
