I bought this 30 inch frame drum about 3 years ago (2022 I think) for use in drum circles and also for recording. It’s incredible! I wanted a drum that people could not just hear, but also feel. This one fulfills that promise very powerfully, so I call it the Boneshaker. I’ve gotten a ton of compliments about it at drum circles. It helps to hold the rhythm together very well. By playing the drum harmonics, I can find at least 3 tones to it, more depending on how I tune it. I’ve had dozens of drums and over a hundred percussion instruments over the years, but this is in the top 1% of my all time favorites. I even painted the head and it’s beautiful! Everyone at the drum circles loves it.
I bought this bodhran after I broke my more decorative one while protesting. I’m one of four women who are Drumming for Democracy every week at our local Saturday protest.
The DG-255 I received from Lark in the Morning was easily as beautiful as presented. The padded gig bag is a huge plus as well.
The guitar is a solid and has a bigger, more forward sound than I'd anticipated which suits me just fine. It plays easily, surely even more so after I have a guitar tech get it set up for me.
Nice people, excellent service, quick shipping. Nothing not to like here.
This whistle has a beautiful, warm tone and is very responsive. I have used a variety of whistles (including other Kerry whistles), and this one is my favorite to play. While recording my latest album, I needed a whistle in this key pretty quickly, and Lark in the Morning had this delivered to me within a few days. I highly recommend this instrument, and Lark in the Morning is a fantastic place to purchase from with excellent customer service.
I already play a mountain lap dulcimer, but this one gives the instrument a whole different dimension to playing. Really beautiful craftsmanship. Thus isn’t a toy, but a lovely wooden instrument. Very easy to play!
