Bodhran Carrying Cases (Bags)

A case is well worth its cost to protect your investment in the instrument, especially when carrying it to gigs, workshops or the nearest jam session.

For 18" Bodhrans

BC1. The Superior brand 18" black bodhran case at left is very nice. Features padded nylon fabric, zipper around outer circumference, pocket for beaters, handles, plus adjustable shoulder strap. This case is produced for the 18" Irish Waltons bodhrans which are 3 1/2" deep, but fits the 18" inside tunable Mid-East ones as well. It is a fairly close fit on these bodhrans, however, and is not roomy enough to take deeper bodhrans, nor bodhrans with outside hardware. $32.

BC3. Good-quality roomy 18" case with both carrying handle (on top edge) and backpack crossed straps. The actual dimensions are 18 1/2 " x 5". Quilted nylon, some padding, zipper that goes almost all the way around, and  side pocket. Black. $32

BC4. Economy 18" black nylon fabric case. Zipper goes almost all around.  Side pocket. $10

For 16" Bodhrans

BC10. For standard 16" bodhrans that are about 3 1/2" deep. Economy model, nylon fabric, side pocket, long zipper, handles. $10

BC11. For our deep 16" x 7.5" bodhran. Economy model, nylon fabric, side pocket, long zipper, handles. $12.

Although we show the deep BC11 at left, both of the above cases are the same style.

For 14" Bodhrans

BC20. Nylon quilted carrying case for our 14" bodhrans has handles, a long zipper around the circumference, and a side zipper pocket for things such as your beaters. Black, rugged material. This is a wide case; it takes a bodhran with at least 4" rim depth. $23

BC21. For standard 14" bodhrans. Economy case made of black nylon fabric, side pocket, long zipper, handles. $10

At the moment we are unable to get more of the cases shown below.

BC2. Padded 18" CB brand case from Waltons. Adjustable/removable shoulder strap and sewn-on padded handle. The inside measurements of this case are maximum 19  in diameter and 5" deep. Large gusseted side pocket with velcro closing is 10" x 13" x  2" deep, large enough to take your music books as well as beaters and even a small pocketbook. Good metal hardware attaches  the strap. The woven fabric appears to be nylon. The zipper on this case opens almost all the way around, which makes it really easy to put your bodhran in and out (we've struggled with enough bodhran cases to know what a plus this is!). This case is roomy, and will take a bodhran with outside tunable hardware easily. Black only.
