The Roth Sihon Wire Violin Mute enables medium to heavy muting without heavily distorting the tone. The mute fits your instrument by squeezing together the A and D strings and then pushing the mute down over them. The two strings, once released, will engage in the mute to secure it into place. When needed, the mute can be easily placed on the bridge; when it's not required, it can be slid down to the tailpiece. Suitable for all styles of play.
Not only does the Roth Sihon Mute reduce the sound volume, but it also helps dampen the strings and reduce wolf tones. This greatly eliminates the possibility of any unwanted sounds during every performance.
