Custom products & service
In cooperation with international recognized musicians and companies I succeeded to produce a broad product line of tuba and euphonium mutes for high standards. The result is certainly something to be proud of! My main focus is to produce mutes that satisfy the musician`s individual needs. Therefore I try to have close personal contact with my clients that I can customize the mutes to their requirements.
Yours sincerely
