Introducing the Rattan Tipper for Bodhran, a meticulously crafted tool designed to enhance your musical experience. This tipper is constructed from several strands of rattan, expertly wrapped and secured by a band to form a slightly flexible instrument. By sliding off the smaller restraining band, musicians can achieve a brushed or snare-like sound, adding versatility to their performance. This beater is adaptable, allowing for use in either direction, making it a must-have for any bodhran player.
The Rattan Tipper is swung back and forth against the head of a bodhran, creating lively and dynamic rhythmic patterns. Known also as a bone, beater, or cipin, each tipper offers a unique comfort and grip, resulting in varied sound outputs. Musicians are encouraged to explore different styles to find the perfect match for their playing style. Crafted from solid wood and hand-turned on a lathe, each tipper may have slight variations in profile, adding to its unique character. Don't miss the opportunity to elevate your music—try one today!
Features:
- Handcrafted from solid wood for durability and unique sound.
- Flexible design allows for diverse sound production.
- 9.5" long x 5/8" in diameter, perfect for comfortable handling.

I love this tipper. It gives the drum more of a whispering snare sound.

Beautiful amazing instrument! Easy and fun to play! Highly recommended! Great customer service and fast shipping!!
Jackie arrived, nicely packed and in rapid order... much lighter than I expected, thank goodness as the instrument is attached to the player by their thumbs (and mine are kind of old).
I never thought that it would be so challenging for me to learn play ... so different from anything I've tried before... I can feel the neurons in my brain sparking and protesting. Actually, it feels good to build new pathways. The cat is none too pleased with my new endeavor. However, Jackie is a beautiful instrument, well made and of good quality. I'm sure, in time, we'll become the best of friends.
Thanks to all at Lark in the Morning for making my experience so pleasant and trouble free. <3
The external Twin Spot works great on my Irish Bouzouki. I've scotched taped the pickup heads and wires it in place for easy adjustment, and the pick up sensitivity is very good. I'm running it through my guitar DI box for increased sensitivity and tone control.
I think that every household should have a buffalo horn. We are now the proud owners of a fine horn which we obtained from Lark in the morning. It will be handy for calling in the children from play, and signaling to the neighbors across the river.
This chieftain ain’t bad. I would say situated in between intermediate and professional grade. A little bit thick but not too thick. I’m happy with this purchase
