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.

What is the difference between a pitched and an unpitched percussion instrument?

The key distinction lies in the ability of pitched percussion instruments to play melodies and harmonies, while unpitched percussion instruments are primarily used for rhythm and texture.
