"I take great pride in my drums, and make each one as if I were making it for myself."

"My bodhráns represent the culmination of over thirty years of research and continuing development. I didn't start out to be a bodhrán maker at all, but made them for myself for performance. After concerts, I'd get people coming up to me wondering if I could make one for them and it grew from there. I'm very demanding of myself and my instruments, and my customers have benefited from many advancements I've made in regard to my bodhráns or accessories, whether it be the drums design, various options, and my use of top quality materials. Over the years, I've also developed several innovations - the MG Slide Bar (my invention), I was the first to use the Comfort Edge on bodhráns, I also developed a collapsible Bodhrán Stand and my own line of lathe-turned tippers in various sizes and styles depending on your texturing needs. The list goes on... I also carry a line of bags for the different size bodhráns, including the Ultra Deep (as shown in the photo) which are making a comeback, recordings, instructional material (new video in the works), and our own Ace Bodhráns Conditioner for your drum's head." |
It is often said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. While there are others whose bodhráns may look like Mance Grady's, they have yet to match the quality of materials, construction and tonality you get from the real thing. | |
