Ever since the first design of the Denis Wick straight mute in 1968, it has become a favourite among brass players worldwide. This popularity is down to the excellent intonation and resistance, while also being able to produce searing fortissimos. The handspun aluminium used in Denis Wick mutes is both light and extremely resonant.
The mute is very open, meaning that the instrument is not restricted by the mute when tucked into the bell. Unlike other mutes on the market that silence the instrument slightly when playing, the Denis Wick straight mute enables the performer to keep a full rich sound.
Traditional Manufacturing Methods
Denis Wick's company has stuck with their construction methods from their founded years. Using a lathe spinning technique, the mutes are handspun by artisans to create a superior product. This spinning technique makes the mute lightweight and easy to use. Real cork is used on the mute to ensure a snug fit inside of the bell of the instrument at all times.
