S-Mute Multifunction Trumpet Mute!

A fresh, unique take on a classic jazz sound. S-Mute is run by Dr. Nathan Sobieraslki, who has done some great research on trumpet mutes and how they effect the sound and playability of the instrument. With this research he developed a unique system of adjustable corks so that you can make the mute fit perfectly into your horn. You'll never have to shave your corks again!

From S-Mute:

The second-generation Multifunction Mute is here!  Design improvements include finer threads between the cup and straight, rounded corks that match the contour of the bell, and a much-improved cork storage tray/case among other refinements.  These mutes feature our quick change corks system, and the excellent sound and intonation our mutes are known for.  The Multifunction Mute can be used as a straight mute, cup mute, and plunger, three mutes in one!  The mute comes standard in a carbon black finish.  

The cork storage tray features an easy-close clamshell design.  

Price includes the mute, 4 cork sizes (size 0.5-2), and the storage tray/case.  Thicker cork assemblies are available for wider bell flares (sizes 2.5 and 3).

Testimonials:

Jens Lindemann, International Trumpet Artist 

The S-Mute is one of the finest mutes I have ever played.  The intonation is impeccable and the ability to make micro adjustments to create numerous different colours is a reflection of the fantastic thought and workmanship that has gone into its development.  Quite simply, this is a mute that should not only be owned, it will be used for ones entire career. 

Ron Franklin, 2nd Trumpet Fresno Philharmonic Orchestra 

I love playing this mute and use it often!  It has a wonderful tone color, is free blowing and most importantly, plays in tune in all ranges and dynamic levels.  I highly recommend it for all orchestral trumpet players!  

Eric C, Music Educator Clovis, CA

Wow. This new S-Mute is amazing.  Love the sound. Ease of blow. Tuning is spot on.

This mute instantly corrected some of the tuning issues I was having with my other cups, and playing the mute has a similar feel to playing open, which makes it easier to hear myself and produce a good tone. Great mute!

These mutes come in black, are very light, and have a matte finish.
