Perefect Traveling Companion!
By Robert K. Shiflet
Have travelled with many of my smaller drums, eventually landing on a frame drum due to size. But the frame drum is *negative* practice for most other hand drums. The REMO Tubanito is the perfect traveling partner and companion! It gives the feel of your *normal* hand drums without giving up much in the sound department. And drum head is about the size of most of what you could easily carry for travel. Fits well in all my carry on bags and easily is carried in a motorcycle saddle bag. WAHOO, thanks REMO!!

Unbelievable!!
By J. Homan
I bought this wanting a portable conga. I own 2 big gon-bops congas, but they are not that much fun to lug around. I also play a pair of Pearl Primero congas at church. I set this up on a snare stand next to congas and was so delighted with the sound, I started using this more.Now, you have to play with it some to get the sounds you want, sometimes using your fingers more than your palm for deeper sounds. I was sold on the idea that congas and bongos must have real skin heads, but the sound coming from this head has totally changed my mind. It has much more volume than I would have imagined also.I don't know if this replaces real wood congas, but it has such a pretty distinct sound, that its worth buying as an add-on. And it really fits the bill as a good portable drum. You do need to buy a bag for it though. Remo sells a bag, and you can also use a snare drum gig bag for it-like a 6.5 by 14" would be roomy enough.If you want to play standing up, you are going to need a tall snare stand-those are normally designated as a concert snare stand because concert percussionists play standing up and kit drummers play seated.

By Kevin R. Daniels
I really like this drum. It is much louder than I imagined it would be, nearly as loud as most of the Remo hand drums. And when you insert the foam sound reducer, it is quiet enough to play in a hotel room or not bother your neighbors. Kinda similar to putting a thick towel over a conga/djembe head and playing. I actually like the sound this way. There is no deep bass with or without the damper, though. You can get decent tones and slaps, and if you use finger style (darabuka/tabla) you can make some interesting sounds. The newer Remo synthetic heads are better than the older ones. They also added something to the bottom of the head to take out the ringing sound and it is definitely an improvement. The feel of this drum is great! Better than any of my hand drums, and I own many. I also like that I'm able to put it in my Bodhran case, inside the Bodhran. It's not too heavy or awkward like some of the other brands with similar drums, and I think it would fit in most back-packs. This will be going with me all around the world as I travel.
