Denis Wick DW5531 Trumpet Cup

I play Bach Vincent 37 trumpet for 8 years and this product has been another great thing in my life.

This is an interesting mute, in that the cup is adjustable - you can slide it closer to the bell to create a different sound. I have found that it is possible to achieve a sound very similar to a stone lined cup mute by bringing the cup very close to the bell. Used without the cup, this mute is a dark toned straight mute. A single mute with a variety of different sounds.

I recommend this to all trumpeters. Just a great product at good price!

This is probably the best trumpet mute I've played, not to mention the best cup mute! Where to start? As expected from Denis Wick, the quality of this mute is perfect, but it's the sound that will blow you away. What I love most about this mute is the fact that I can get so many different tone colours by adjusting the position of the cup, 1 mm seems to make a huge difference! There's not much back pressure and intonation is perfect. This mute allows me to fit in with ANY group/style of music. Also, if I am stuck, I can simply remove the cup and I have a pretty decent straight mute! Without doubt an essential mute for any trumpeter.
