This is definitely the most effective banjo mute ever designed...
Includes a Lifetime Replacement Warranty - Made in the U.S.A.
Precision Machined Billet Banjo Mute...made out of solid brass and designed to fit all 5-string banjo bridges.
Perfect for Practice:
Will tone down your banjo substantially more than any other mute being made today. Practice without disturbing others...can be used effectively for playing along with recordings so that your banjo is not covering up the licks you're attempting to learn...a great tool if you ever want to practice while watching TV. Quiets the banjo enough to allow yourself and others to hear the television...an invaluable accessory for the beginner who may find that practicing with the Silencer will make the learning process less harsh on the ears...will also ensure that others support your practicing efforts...
Enhances your banjo's tonality for special applications:
The Mystic West Banjo Silencer will make your banjo sound similar to a harpsichord. It not only takes down the volume of your banjo, but will also add more sustain with a softer tone. There are many slower songs where the Banjo Silencer will contribute to a softer tone with more sustain. Great for backing up singers or if looking for a different voicing during recording sessions.

Subject: Re: Mystic West Aluminum 5 string banjo mute
I received the mute and I have to say I am impressed. Just what I have been looking for.
Thanks
Tom C.
Thanks Tom ... the brass ones should be done this coming week ... remember though, the brass ones quiet down the banjo substantially. You may have everything you need with the aluminum one.
All my best, Mickey Cochran

Comes with protective cloth string-drawn bag:
The Mystic West Banjo Silencer comes with it's very own carrying bag of which can be safely stored in your pick pocket of your banjo case.
Installs with set thumbscrews to ensure a solid fit:
Can be fitted to any 5-string banjo bridge...most mutes will fit only certain types of bridges. The new Mystic West Banjo Silencer fits all 5-string banjos...with the thumbscrews, this mute can be solidly fitted to ensure a tighter fit and a quieter banjo. Although larger than other banjo mutes, this contributes to an even quieter sound that can only be achieved with a larger mass of metal. If you're looking for a banjo mute to add sustain while not deadening the tone too much, you might try our Aluminum Mystic West Banjo Silencer.
