Hirschman WG Cone Tone Soloist Plugner Mute For Trombone
The WG CONE TONE trombone plunger is co-designed by Hirschman Mutes and one of the world’s foremost plunger players, Wycliffe Gordon. The mute’s name is inspired by Wycliffe’s nickname, “Pinecone”. This mute is narrower and shallower than the BIG BLUE, with a contour reminiscent of the plungers used by classic trombonists from yesteryear. This is designed primarily as a soloist’s mute, whereas the Big Blue shines in section work.
Unique features
- Handgrip — Our large, comfortable handgrip makes the plunger easy to pick up and hold. No more slips or drops!
- Distinctive color — Inspired by Duke Ellington’s Mood Indigo and Snooky Young’s/Clark Terry’s blue plungers, with a design updated for the 21st century.
- Our first plunger WITHOUT the Kenny Penny™ venting system — pick it up from any direction you want and you are ready to play.
- Artist model designed by Wycliffe’s for optimum performance – size, shape, and flexibility
- A more traditional contoured plunger without the traditional problems of wear, cracking and falling apart
Height 3.12″/7.92cm, Outer diameter 6.0″/15.24cm
