Silent Brass system including ST-9 System and Mute.The secret of the SB-1 system is the Pickup Mute. This is the first tuba practice mute which keeps the tuning of your instrument. The secret of the mute lies in the revolutionary Inner Head design which maintains the same intonation you would have if the tuba was played open. Play high or low, loud or soft, and your pitch will remain true and centered. And whats more, when used with the personal studio and earphones you wont feel as if the air is backing up on you. Your tuba will feel as free and responsive as it does during open play.Tuba Mute Specifications: Internal electric condenser microphone - Soft carrying case - Dimensions: (diameter x length) 380 (15") x 980 (38-9/16")mm - Weight: 2.9 kg (6.4 lbs.)
