Whether you want to replicate traditional hand drum tones or forge your own sound, the Sympatico Tubadora offers versatile performance in a highly portable package.

Innovative Internal Tuning

The Sympatico Tubadora solves the problem of choosing between a tunable drum that's heavy and awkward or a fixed-tone lightweight drum. Its internal tuning system significantly reduces weight while allowing easy adjustability. Simply turn the internal mechanism to change the drum's pitch and tension the synthetic leather head. There's no bulky external hardware to get in your way or add extra pounds. The proprietary design provides a drumming experience you've never had before.

Resonant, Lightweight Shell

The Tubadora's PVC shell produces a wide range of tones with crisp attack and full sustain. Although PVC is lightweight and durable, it resonates freely to convey both high and low frequencies. Paired with the tunable leather head, you can shape a variety of drum sounds or swap out the head for different sonic flavors. The shell's strength and weather-resistance also make the Tubadora suitable for outdoor playing.

Versatile, Portable Performance

With the Sympatico Tubadora, you get a hand drum that's highly adaptable to different styles of music and playing environments. Its lightweight design provides grab-and-go portability for drum circles, therapy sessions, classrooms and travel. The tunable head allows you to fine-tune the pitch to match other instruments or change the drum's character on the fly. Whether you want to keep things traditional or push the boundaries of sound, the Tubadora empowers versatile performance.
