The Cuica is a friction drum with a stick attached to the center of the head. The stick is rubbed with one hand inside using a damp cloth while varying pressure is applied to the outside of the head by the other hand to create the instrument's unique sound.
Pre tuned Cuica features a Smooth White drumhead with a Quick-Change stick. Remo’s pre tuned cuica is pitched to emulate the optimal sound of the tunable models.
