Humes & Berg162 Stonelined Series Upright Bell Baritone Horn and Euphonium Straight Mute 162 - Straight Mute
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Humes & Berg 162 is a straight mute for baritone horn and euphonium. Its red-and-white body uses a cork stripe intended to seat snugly in common bells for those instruments. In use, it keeps resistance close to a free-blowing feel while narrowing the timbre for passages written for a straight mute. The mute's end flares out toward its cap, setting its shape apart from the 210.
