Overview
The Remo Valencia 100 Series Tubano Drum is a versatile, key-tuned percussion instrument designed to deliver the warm, low-pitched tones reminiscent of traditional conga drums, but with added accessibility and modern durability. As the 12-inch mid-sized model in the series, it offers a perfect balance of resonant lows and punchy highs. Constructed with Remo's proprietary Acousticon® shell material, this Tubano provides excellent acoustic projection and structural integrity, making it an ideal choice for professional drum circles, educational classrooms, and recreational music-making.
Equipped with a key-tuned Nuskyn® Type 2 Mondo™ drumhead, players can easily adjust the pitch to suit their musical needs while enjoying a natural, weather-resistant playing surface that feels great under the hands. The Tubano's unique acoustic design features an internal resonant chamber and a cut-out base, allowing it to project rich bass tones while sitting flat on the floor—eliminating the need for a separate stand. This specific model is wrapped in the vibrant "Island" finish, adding a colorful and engaging visual aesthetic to its rich sonic profile.
