Pros: Excellent practice mute, not too heavy, produces a dull but good quality sound, it has a plastic coating which lessons the chance of accidentally damaging the instrument.
Cons: None

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-off Mutes the sound but too big.
Pros: Mutes the sound very well indeed.
Cons: It's very big and as a beginner I still need to see where I'm bowing, this mute blocks my veiw.
Other: It's well made item though, good material and very solid.

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Folky diddler loves this
Pros: This is great for practicing full bowing and giving tunes a belt without worrying about idle listeners thinking "when will he get that bit right?". Non musicians don't understand that there is a lot of repetition in practice.
Cons: None
Other: I have had no complaints in many hotels to date. I travel with work and take one of these with me. I have one of the all metal ones too. The metal one is quieter to the player does not grip the bridge as well well. I bought one as a gift because I have never practiced as much I do now that I got one of these things. I only wish I could have one for the concertina.

Small-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-onSmall-star-on Works well
Pros: Definitely the most quiet of the many mutes I have tried and easily fits my fiddles. Well made and should last a lifetime.
Cons: Very heavy - but then it needs to be to be in order to absorb the bridge vibrations so not really a con as such.
Other: I mainly play by ear so lots of repetition when learning new tunes so this mute is a family favourite!
