Heavy Brass Practice Mute for Violin and Small Viola Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I tried few different mutes. This one provides maximum muting effect making playing barely audible. Perfect for playing without disturbing others. This being said there are 2 problems. The mute has its bridge grooves cut too tightly, and does not fit well on 2 of the bridges I tried it on - one being a cheap no-name, the other being Aubert Lux model. The mute goes only a few millimeters down and although works well, the fit is insecure and the weight shift may potentially damage bridge edges. I believe the mute could be improved by cutting the groves wider. The other problem is that the mute kills 99% of tonal color, so it's use is limited to practicing finger positions but not the actual clarity of played music. Since there are few manufacturers of this mute type, perhaps I need to try to obtain another one from a different vendor...
