D'Addario Spector Violin Mute

It hard to take it off and put it on but it’s easy to use

Glad I found this

My favorite mute. Easy to use and sounds great. This is NOT a practice mute, so don't expect a huge decrease in volume. It's more about getting a different timbre, filtering out the high partials, and slightly decreasing the volume to save your ears and/or blend in better in certain group situations. I don't play in an orchestra, so can't comment on that.

Awesome mute - makes muting and unmuting my violin quick and smooth, allowing me a more confident playing experience.
