PAMPETTrombone Mute French Horn Practice Mute

You'll read so many reviews of horn practice mutes from people who just don't like them horn practice mutes. The truth is a practice mute for horn isn't for everything. There isn't a mute yet that you can play with at super low volumes that feels identical to the open horn, so forget that. That being said, this is a great warmup and practice tool. I like to sit on the couch at night and watch TV with my wife, and with this mute I can sit and watch and play scales and etudes while I do that.This mute works great for what it is. It stays in the bell well. The sound is a little skewed, and the resistance is big, but it's no harm to your playing to use a mute like this as long as you are also spending time playing without it as well. In fact playing a passage with this mute, then a immediately playing without it has been beneficial to me.Would recommend for the value to price ratio. 👍👍

It's not a mute you would use for mute effect, but rather for blocking sound during practice. It does the job very well. One caveat is that the foam is of the type which will eventually dry out, but it can easily be replaced with cork if and when the time comes.

Great product for those needing the solitude with your big brass.

It creates a very soft volume without impeding air flow....it feels like there's no mute.Nice to play without coloring or changing tonal quality. I love it!

Didn't know what a practice mute was. Now I know it muffles the volume. Not what I wanted.

I'm a musician and I live in an apartment, thanks to your mute I can now practice my trombone without bothering my neighbors, thanks!
