It is made of aluminum with a stonelined interior. The mute has a special front-end holder that enables brassmen to produce exciting “Doo-Wah” plunger effects.

By partially covering and uncovering the bell with the plunger, trumpet players can achieve a wide range of expressive sounds, making it a versatile tool for jazz and other musical styles.
