Denis Wick 50th Anniversary Golden Aluminum Trombone Straight Mute

Available for a limited time only, the standard Denis Wick aluminum trombone straight mute has been clothed in a gold shimmer finish to celebrate the milestone 50 years anniversary of excellence in mute and mouthpiece manufacturing. This Denis Wick 50th Anniversary aluminum trombone straight mute is hand-made using hand-spun aluminum. Unlike machine-spun aluminum, the hand spinning process creates a higher density aluminum that is extra responsive and maintains excellent intonation. Coated in a gold shimmer lacquer, this anniversary straight mute features a special 50th anniversary Denis Wick badge. During his 31 year career as principle trombonist with the London Symphony Orchestra, Denis Wick played under the direction of many of the world’s greatest conductors.

Born from the need of a performing musician that wanted to create a product to produce better musical results than anything that was currently available, Denis Wick started making mutes and mouthpieces for himself and his colleagues in 1968.
