The Classic Bucket Mute

The Humes and Berg Velvet-Tone Bucket Mute offers an extremely soft and warm sound that blends well in a variety of ensemble and solo settings; it is plush at soft dynamics but gets an appealing weight and punch to the sounds at upper dynamics. The response is good in the middle and upper registers; the lower register can get a bit stuffy at times. This mute has the sound by which all bucket mutes are judged!

Willie Berg invented Stonelined Mutes in 1935 and to this day they are one of the most popular mute choices available. The Stonelined series uses fiber material (painted in their well-known white and red) to create a muted sound with a balance of warmth and woodiness with projection. The Humes and Berg sound is used extensively in big band and jazz settings and continues to be one of the best values on the mute market.
