●ANOTHER CHOICE: Wooden straight mutes produce a totally different sound than metal mutes, offering you more variety for your French horn. Find the exact tone you want with the adjustable tuning slide, while cork strips on the base provide stability.

●THE WARMEST COLOR: All musicians know that distinctive, earthy sound produced by a wooden mute—it simply cannot be matched by other materials. Achieve that particular, beautiful tone color while also producing exquisite intonation on every register.
●NATURAL BEAUTY: Birch faced plywood sidewalls ensure a hardy, strong accessory. Its base is made of marine plywood, lined with vulcanized fiber to ensure the highest-quality sound. Weighing only 8 ounces, no comfort is sacrificed while you play your horn.
●BRITISH PRIDE: The Denis Wick name is synonymous with quality and prestige, changing the music industry with the first mute designed in 1968. The company earned the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade in 2013, a most honorable achievement.
