3.0 out of 5 stars Works but with a price, January 26, 2011

The Glaesel Ebony mute is pretty simply to install, but in time it will slip off little by little.. As for it's job, it does actually mute with a more bassy sound. The downside is that it will "hide" your mistakes made without the mute and the Ebony will stain the bridge black after a week or 2 of use. If you want to preserve your bridge then I suggest trying a different product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Old-timers mute, that old time sound., November 23, 2011

I've seen over the years people getting away from this type of mute and going to the Tourte rubber mute and/or the infernal wire mute, which is a shame, because if you want that beautifully muted sound, this is the mute to get. Would recommend this mute and none other. Been using one for over forty years now.
