Description

The concert mute by Wmutes is specially designed to produce a high quality muted sound for your instrument. The amount of muted sound is similar to a standard mute, but its design and materials produce a much richer, stable and focused sound. Made of an especially refined brass, Wmutes are plated with gold (1mc 24k), ruthenium or silver. A thin layer of velvet allows a smooth fitting on the bridge, the hold is absolutely silent and safe. Easily attaches onto the string whilst not in use.

A mute with gold-plated sound quality
4 out of 4 found the following review helpful

Pros: In fact bought for a violinist friend, but the consensus was that this mute makes a very lovely sound, without the nasal quality of some mutes. It lessens the sound very effectively for such a small thing, and is also very nice looking - mind you, you'd expect that at this price!

Cons: It is very small, and risks getting lost when not in use, or accidentally disappearing down an f hole! The price is also pretty eye-watering for such a tiny object, but still less than the price of a set of strings or a rehair... (would have given it 5 stars if it were cheaper).

Other: You have to be quite deft with your fingers to put it on, so maybe not as practical as a 'sliding' mute for those quick passages where it needs to be taken on and off repeatedly. But for sound quality, it beats most others. Haven't tried the practice mute version but this is already very effective so maybe one doesn't need both.
