Here's this weeks #mutemonday video!

I'm discussing a little Shastock history, and I'm discussing three cup mutes that I have one from the early 1930s, one from the 50s/60s, and another one that's potentially from the 1920s (more research is needed and the experts seem to be stumped).

Anyone here dig the Shastock cup?

I've only got a few ... but I'm hanging on to them.

Ray Robinson ... I've got a LOT of. Shastock straight mute ... also a LOT of. But I typically trade as opposed to sell.

One think I like is to get complete section sets of some vintage mutes, it's a blast to roll up to a big band gig with them all. Especially since some of the old charts ask for the specific brand of mutes.

And the Shastock Tonal Color lets you easily properly adjust to each trumpet in a section! Not so with the Ray Robinson. I have a few of each, a few more, I could probably put my grandsons through a few months of college!

But don't want to sell any of them, no. Unless the grandkids follow through with their threat to become drummers!

Yeah, the Ray Robinson is not easy to adjust as it's just the corks. I've got a few, all adjusted for my horn, one really tight, one a little more open.

Become drummers ... 😂😂😂
