Great 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
Good 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.

Originally released in 1959, Miles Davis's magnum opus Kind of Blue is still considered by many to be one of the greatest albums of all time. Starring Davis, John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb, Kind of Blue has held onto its status as an album that crosses genres, speaks to generations, and is one of the first (if not the first) album that any new jazz acolyte purchases.

The event was simply billed as "Willie Nelson Sings the Blues," but the historic two-night stand on January 12 and 13, 2007 at Jazz at Lincoln Center was far more than that. Call it a summit meeting between two American icons, Willie Nelson & Wynton Marsalis, two of the most significant figures in modern-day country and jazz, who discovered common ground in their love for jazz standards and the blues. Their performance stirred the sounds of New Orleans, Nashville, Austin and New York City into a brilliantly programmed mix that was equal parts down-home and cosmopolitan, with plenty of swing and just a touch of melancholy. To say that these shows were a hot ticket would be an understatement. Luckily, the tapes were rolling and the results of this unique collaboration now constitute the Blue Note album Two Men With The Blues for everyone who couldn't cram into The Allen Room.
