[Features]

A plunger mute from the "KR Indigo" series, co-developed by Kenny Rampon, known as a trumpet player with "Jazz at Lincoln Center," and the American mute manufacturer Hirschman.

It features a distinctive appearance with a large blue silhouette and a 1-cent coin handle. This handle interacts with a coin inside the plunger, allowing you to switch between open and closed positions.

・The flagship MAX model delivers a rich, full sound, excellent pitch control, and exceptional playability. It represents the ultimate plunger mute, honed for maximum expressive power.

・The STANDARD model retains the MAX model's characteristics but is smaller and easier to hold, recommended for players seeking a traditional plunger sound.

・The BIG BLUE model is the trombone version of the MAX model. It delivers innovative ease of playing, excellent tone, and pitch accuracy. It can be used universally from tenor to bass trombone.

・The WG CONE TONE model is the signature model of trombonist Wycliffe Gordon. Compared to the above models, it has a smaller volume and does not include a coin. It produces a spicier, punchier sound than the BIG BLUE.
