Soulo Mute Trumpet Bucket Mute

love it

I use that a lot, smooth tone, perfect pitch

Simple and effective - but expensive

Pros: Very easy to use/adjust mute and its effect is very warm, mellow, and soft. I felt like kinda transforming your trumpet into flugelhorn.

Cons: Unfortunately very expensive.

Best Bucket Mute

I've tried various brands of bucket mutes through the years, but this beats the competition hands down.

The mute is fantastic quality, with no rough or sharp edges and nicely padded clips to attach it to the bell of the trumpet. Depending on the exact size of your bell the clips might need bending slightly to get a good grip. The bucket has some issues fitting on smaller bells, such as some cornets and Eb and D trumpets, but with a small amount of bending the clips this can be fixed.

The sound of the mute is beautiful and mellow, with the adjustable tightness of the bucket allowing for a wider range of tonal colour.
