Improved: SUre, a Bass Drum, like any drum, is 'tuned'; by that we mean the skin is tightened to make a suitable sound.
BASS DRUMS --no drum, except TIMPANI -- Are not 'tuned'..... to specific pitches.
Good Question!
I know that it is a percussion, and you do have to tighten the strings every know and then.Bass in this case means large because it just has a deeper sound.
Yup. Generally, they are tuned by screwing or unscrewing hex screws attached to tension rods at the bottom of the instrument.
No, cymbals are not tuned. They're a percussion instrument, and they cannot be tuned in any way.
A tuned instrument can play a tune, but an untuned instrument can only play a rythm.
A bass drum is indeed considered a Percussion instrument both inside and outside a band. No matter where you place it, a band, marching band, Orchestra,etc., a bass drum will always be a percussion instrument.

A bass drum is considered a percussion instrument. Anything that you hit is percussion. Even if you hit your legs. That is considered percussion. Of course your legs aren't an instrument though. is it a tuned percussion or untuned????
It's percussion, but it's not tuned to a specific pitch.
A percussion instrument with no pitch is (obviously) a percussion instrument, but with no recognisable note in any scale, producing a beat rather than a note. Examples of these instruments are snare drum, bass drum, tomtom drum etc.
