He found the perfect balance between an even muted sound throughout all registers and a light yet rugged construction. Our tuba mutes weigh on average from 2-3 lbs. (XS – XL).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"gsf-padding-2-2\"\u003eThe result is a mute that tubists from around the world (Japan, Australia, Finland, Brazil, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, even China) along with an overwhelming majority of American players, have come to appreciate for its clear sound and projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Design\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"gsf-padding-2-2\"\u003eOur three-size interchangeable corks (a Balu innovation) allow our tuba mutes to fit into any size bell on the market today. Three feet on the base of the tuba mute will keep your mute safely on the floor without scratching the lacquer, while two small feet on the side of the base opposite the handle (a Balu innovation) allow the player to position the mute in a horizontal resting position, essential for quick and convenient access. The cork at the top protects the bell from mute-related dents when quickly inserted into the horn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Fit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"gsf-padding-2-2\"\u003eWe recommend our XL mutes for the very large tubas, such as 5\/4 and 6\/4 C tubas, our regular size for 4\/4 C tubas, and our XS mutes for all Eb and 3\/4 F tubas.
