Is the tambourine a definite or indefinite pitch?

The tambourine is generally considered an indefinite pitch instrument. This means it does not produce a specific, identifiable pitch like a piano or a flute. Instead, it provides a rhythmic sound that can contribute to the overall texture of music without a defined tonal center. The pitch can vary slightly depending on how it is played and the materials used in its construction.
