Tom Crown: a reference in brass mutes
Renowned for its wide range of mutes, the Tom Crown brand offers different families (straight, wah-wah, cup, practice) to meet the needs of orchestra, studio, and contemporary music. This aluminum wah-wah version fits this logic: an expressive accessory designed to multiply colors without complicating playing.
For which musician and styles
This wah-wah mute is aimed at trumpet players (or compatible brass instruments) of intermediate to professional level who seek articulated effects and a marked sonic signature. It is particularly comfortable in jazz, big band, film music, and contemporary repertoires.
Sound and design
Made of aluminum, the mute provides a brighter and more metallic sound than a softer mute, while maintaining stable emission. The central tube (the rod) acts as a modulator: by moving it, you adjust the opening and thus the intensity of the "wah" effect. When removed, you get a "wee-zee" sound, softer and more typical.
Recommended compatible accessories
If your instrument allows it, a mute holder can be practical during rehearsals and on stage for quick mute changes.
