A Must-Have for Daily Practice
The mute is an essential accessory in the brass world: it allows modification of the sound level (and sometimes the tone color) while maintaining playing sensations close to the "open" instrument. This aluminum model focuses on the most sought-after goal at home, backstage, or on the go: playing significantly quieter without compromising intonation.
For Which Trumpeters and Playing Contexts
Ideal for beginners as well as intermediate and advanced musicians who want to work on endurance, attacks, and transitions daily. Perfect for practice settings (apartments, wings, hotels) and useful regardless of style: classical, jazz, pop, brass band.
Sound and Design
This mute emphasizes a marked volume reduction while helping to maintain stable intonation. Its compact size facilitates transport and storage, and the aluminum offers a good balance between lightness and durability for an accessory handled very frequently.

Very good mute mute that is pleasant to play and light. Clear and accurate sound. I recommend it without hesitation, after buying a “Yamaha Silent Brass SB7-9" mute, a little less noisy but expensive and a gimmick I think. I also have a “Denis Wick” apartment mute that gives me a disgusting sound! So this mute makes a lot of difference. That said, be careful, it comes out of the Pavilion a bit so depending on the case you use it may be in the way. That said she is very small so easy to find a place for her. (1 year of trumpet for me, my advice is what they are worth).
