4Great for the "Old School" cup mute sound  Dec 02, 2010 By E. Sikorski
This is certainly a good all-around cup mute. It has a good tone, kind of dry because of the material it made of. It blends very nicely with other instruments and keeps playing into the ensemble sound easy. I really enjoy using this mute when playing musicals, particuarly older books. The pitch on the mute is consistent throughout the range, and it only creates a very small difference from the pitch center on trumpet. (Which is always nice to not have to move your tuning slide with every mute change). The mute is pretty durable, and will not dent. It will however break if too much weight is put on it...like sitting on it! The cork may need some filing to get the exact sound you want. If you are looking for a cup mute with a brighter tone that cuts through better, check out the Denis Wick adjustable cup mute. Denis Wick Adjustable Cup Mute for Trumpet or Cornet


2Good for last minute, nothing else  Feb 02, 2012 By Earphone
Humes & Berg are an adequate (if that) choice for the brass player lacking in coin, but I'd recommend saving up and buying something better. (Unless it's last minute.) One 'nice' thing about these mutes, is that they're widely available in most all music stores, if you need a mute on the fly. That said, don't expect nice sounds from these. I got one, when I needed a mute and had lost my other cup mute. I didn't enjoy using it, even as a backup. I don't even know what happened to mine. It's probably lying somewhere in my room.

I've been playing trumpet for ten years, and let me say, I hate the sound these mutes produce. The straight mute, and the cup mute both produce tinny, raspy sounds. A good sound for a cup mute would be soft, feathery, and crisp. These mutes are tinny, tinny, and guess what? Tinny.

I'd recommend the Denis Wick Adjustable cup/straight mute. While as a straight mute, the sound leaves a little something to be desired, (I use a Bach Elite for my straight mute) as a cup mute, the sound is simply great. I love my Denis Wick, and the fact the it's collapsible, (the cup portion comes off) it fits easily and neatly into my Strad case, where it is at home.

There you have it. Keep this as a last resort, buy something better.
