Trombone Straight Mute

Product Overview

“In 1969, inspired by a mute that Adolph Herseth used on the D trumpet, I started producing mutes, with an original production of 10 mutes. With help and feedback from friends in the Lyric Opera Orchestra and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, I developed other trumpet mutes, piccolo trumpet mutes,  tenor and bass trombone mutes and a French horn mute.

“We have three co-workers, William Camp, Chitaka Nishikiori and Gene Arnold, all  professional trumpet players.” – Tom Crown

Tom Crown mutes are used by brass players world-wide.
