Popy CUP Mute
As Played by Maynard Ferguson
What G Ullvén himself said about this mute:
"This mute gives the trumpet the sound of a French horn. With this mute the brass player may cover 90% of the requirements and it gives the soloist a greater space-sound.
It has the capacity of increasing the overtones on the ground note producing a spherical or the so called space-sound.
A wonderful Cup mute with a adjustable Cup to cover all you need. Can be all from a Tight Cup soft warm, to a open bright crispy sound, rich in overtones and perfect in pitch. The Cup can be used as a plunger and without the cup, the torpedo/Straight part becomes a nice "Straight" mute."
This product is handmade in aluminium and weights 180 grams.
Extra accessories available spring 2021:
*A rubber/metal stop ring that can be used to fix the position of the cup. *Extra felt insert fillings available for the Cup. Give a extra subdued mute effect or a good practice mute.
*Removable rubber ring on the top of the Cup, that makes the sound even more tight, mellow, softer and darker if desired.
The most easy blown Cup mute I ever discovered, completely in tune. I'm happy to put my name to a real top product!
