 | Mutes I am in the market for new mutes: Harmon, Cup, Straight and Bucket. Just curious what everyone is using, always down for some public discourse!  Last edited by The BuZZ : 04-03-2007 at 11:51 AM. |

| Re: Mutes Ciao "The Buzz", I really dig my Ullven cup mute (Swedish) but have a drawer full of harmons. I rotate between a few like the Jo-Ral, Shew, and a really old original harmon. A friend of mine in NYC has a stomvi harmon that's no longer made and it's got the best sound for jazz I've ever experienced. Too bad you can't find them. He did in Spain years back and bought it for like $10. I did just get a Best Brass warm-up/practice mute and really like it, so I've ordered their harmon (wow-wow) mute from Dillon's. Of course it's on back order so I'm waiting on it. Claudio Roditi has nice things to say about it so I'm hopefull it'll be "the one" as far as harmons go. Is anyone else hip to these mutes? If so, some feedback would be appreciated. Grazie! |

 | Re: Mutes Hi, Buzz! I am using: DW Straight Trumcore Classical Cup Jo Ral All Copper Trumpet Bubble Mute Getting soon : 2 Trumcore straght mute with copper bottom (one for the piccolo and another one for B flat and C trumpets) Trumcore Lyrical Mute or Sotto Voce mute (have not decide it yet. Jo-ral copper bubble mute has great sound and intonation but as is quite heavy tends to fall off. |

| Re: Mutes Harmon - I have the H&B Wa Wa Du-All and the Wee-Zee. Cup - H&B Stonelined Straight - Jo-Ral aluminum and an H&B philharmonic copper bottom Bucket - H&B Stonelined Plunger - Lowe's Home Improvement store model. (I stuck a plastic champagne screw cork in the top end, which not only helps the grip, but I'm sure helps channel Clark Terry...ha). Solotone (aka Clear Tone) - Shastock Practice (quiet) mute - Jo-Ral A couple that I'm going to purchase... the Eazy bucket mute and I'd love to get ahold of an Emo harmon style mute. I may also go for another Solotone some day (and will get the H&B). |
