Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
The adjustable internal mute is one of the "classic" sound control solutions for snare drums: it aims to tame harmonics and shorten sustain while preserving the attack. Conceptually, it sits between light muting (to keep some liveliness) and heavily dampened sound (for a drier result).
Who This Drum/Instrument Is For
This MASTERCRAFT internal mute is designed for all drummers, from beginners seeking a more manageable sound to experienced musicians wanting a reproducible setting from one gig to another. It is particularly suitable for contexts where the snare drum must remain clear and controlled: pop, funk, variety, gospel, rock, or studio work requiring minimal unwanted resonances.
- Allows you to adapt the sound to suit the style, room and tuning
- Designed for use with acoustic drums, in rehearsals, live performances and the studio

Questions frequently asked
Does the Tama 6552N allow adjustment of the snare attenuation?
A pressure adjustment allows adapting the contact of the damping piece with the batter head. The attenuation can thus range from a light effect to a drier sound.
What effect does it have on harmonics and sustain?
The advertised function reduces harmonics and controls the snare drum's sustain. The attack and body of the sound remain more emphasized.
Is the 6552N mute suitable for studio use?
Its action on unwanted resonances helps achieve a shorter snare sound in microphone recordings. The adjustment allows controlling the level according to the head and tension of the snares. This use is recommended for studio settings requiring minimal resonance.
For which styles is this internal mute appropriate?
Pop, funk, variety, gospel, and rock settings are mentioned for this type of sound control. A clearer snare can be obtained without changing the head or tuning.
What is the material and color of this mute?
The construction is metal with a gray finish.
