Don Maslet tuba practice mute

• Compact, lightweight hand-made fibre mute
• Sits within bell so can be transported inside case
• Very quiet, an ideal warm-up mute
• Suitable for E-flat and BB-flat instruments

Practice mutes have a similar conical design to straight mutes but with a solid cork bell seal to block off the sound. Air flow is greatly reduced and escapes almost silently through a small hole in the body of the mute. They are used for warming up and practising without disturbing the peace.
