| Question: | Could this be used with a Yamaha tenor trombone |

| Question: | Will this work with the jiggs pbone plastic trombone (pbone is distributed worldwide by conn-selmer |
| Answer: | Here is a link to Yamaha showing the Yamaha models this will work on.

| Question: | Will this mute work with Bach trombones |
| Answer: | I have a Bach and yes it works. |
| Question: | What is the difference between this (sb5x2) and the sb5xc model? (not the sb5x, which mrsilvertrumpet explains already, but the model with the "c |
| Answer: | Yamaha never came out with a SB5XC. Prior to the SB5X series was the SB59 and then later the SB59C. The "C" stood for an extra 1/8" male to 1/8" male cable that Yamaha provided so that you could hook up your CD or MP3 player to the ST9 Module. When the SB5X model come out the still included this extra cable. So the SB5X has the extra cable the and the SB5X-2 does not. Again, Yamaha never listed the new SB5X with a C. If you are see that somewhere, it is a seller that has created that that model number not Yamaha. I am a authorized dealer with Yamaha for 14 years and know this particular product line very well. |

| Question: | Will this mute fit a Kanstul 1525 Flugelhorn |
| Answer: | I have a Bach and yes it works. |
| Question: | Is it softer than a silent brass system |
| Answer: | Yamaha never came out with a SB5XC. Prior to the SB5X series was the SB59 and then later the SB59C. The "C" stood for an extra 1/8" male to 1/8" male cable that Yamaha provided so that you could hook up your CD or MP3 player to the ST9 Module.

| Answer: | Yes, it will do that. I have mine on a Wemo switch, connected with my alarm. When I turn the alarm off, the water begins heating in the kitchen and is usually finished just as I get there. I also tied the switch into Google Home and can say "... make me some tea" to get it going. Because I am a dork. It works so long as the pot is full, switched on and the Wemo switched off. When I forget... it's a sad day. |
| Question: | Will this mute work with Bach trombones |
| Answer: | No persistent plastict contact with water, but the plastic top contacts water when you empty the kettle. |
| Question: | What is the difference between this (sb5x2) and the sb5xc model? (not the sb5x, which mrsilvertrumpet explains already, but the model with the "c |
| Answer: | China. This appears to be a bait and switch- all advertising, including on Mueller website implies European made. Sure, they don’t specifically claim it is made in Austria, just that there is no way to know prior to buying this. Of course if you want Chinese made there are tons of options out there. Why limit yourself to this one? |

Bremner (SshhMute) Trombone Practice Mute
Bremner
Product description
Needing to practice at odd times and in odd places over the years (and the absence of a suitable musical mute) was the reason Trevor Bremner designed the sshhmute. In development over several years in his New Plymouth workshop, the sshhmute is at long last in full commercial production and has been successfully launched to answer a market need for an effective mute for brass instruments in a price range to suit budding musicians and professionals alike. The sshhmute is made from lightweight, yet hard-wearing, ABS plastic with no parts to break or fall off. Perhaps one of the primary benefits of the sshhMute design when compared with other silent mutes, is the very small amount of back-pressure it creates. This allows for better air supply, while still opening and developing the throat muscles. Our mute also remains in tune and faithfully accurate throughout the entire range.
- Allows a player to practice almost anywhere
- Small amount of back pressure compared to other practice (silent) mutes
- Remains in tune and faithfully accurate throughout the entire range
- Made from lightweight, yet hard-wearing, ABS plastic
- Perfect for warm-ups before going on stage
