The Gold Tone Mute is makes your banjo much less loud and keeps most of the tones in check. You won't find off keys due to this easy device. I use it to practice at night where I won't wake everyone up!

One of the ONLY items that I have ever taken the time to write a review for... This very simple little tool not only made my Irish Tenor Banjo beyond whisper quiet so that I can play while my wife is sleeping, but even though I play with heavier strings, it also warmed the overall tone, and made it sound similar to a Classical Acoustic Guitar with a thick sleeping bag over it, volume wise. Hugely recommended for anyone who is a night owl like myself!!!

The mute stops most of the transfer from the bridge to the banjos head quite well for more quiet practice as expected. The resultant tone is very mellow and opens up your playing to different tonal possibilities. Well worth trying, and beats stuffing the resonator!

This mute is easy to use and does not interfere with tuning. The sound is very good.

I have two banjo’s, one new and one antique and the mutes fit on both. I bought them to be able to practice quietly anytime and as a bonus they sound very good.
