Remo50 Series Pretuned Tubano 12 x 26 in.
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 12 x 26 in. pretuned tubano from Remo's 50 Series. A standing hand drum for drum circles, classrooms and recreational group playing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Drum circles where players stand or sit around the drum
- Music therapy and school percussion programs
- Anyone who wants a conga-height drum without tuning maintenance
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want to tune the head to a specific pitch
- Traveling players — 26 inches tall is awkward to move
- Hand drummers chasing a traditional conga tone
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
12 in. head diameter
Head size sets the voice — 12 in. gives a fuller, lower tone than a smaller hand drum.
Detail 03
26 in. height
Stands on the floor at roughly conga height. Play standing or from a chair without a stand.
Detail 04
50 Series
Remo's entry tier. Built for group and educational use rather than stage performance.
Detail 05
Multi-colored finish
Printed shell graphics — useful when a program needs drums that are visually distinct from each other.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Pretuned means the pitch is fixed — no tuning key, no adjustment
- 02No stand needed, but the 26 in. height needs storage space
- 03A carrying strap is not part of this drum
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does pretuned mean?
The head is set at the factory and has no tuning lugs. You never tune it, but you also cannot change the pitch.
02How tall is it?
26 inches, with a 12 inch head. It stands on the floor and is played standing or from a chair.
03Is a tubano the same as a conga?
No. A tubano is a pretuned drum with a different shell profile, designed for group and educational playing rather than traditional conga technique.
04Do I need a stand?
No. At 26 inches it stands on the floor on its own.
