Solid little thing
Review by Freddy A. on 21 Aug 2024 review stating Solid little thing
It is a great little thing, only caution is you need to adjust it to work and be cautious installing it and removing it as you can move your bridge.

Review by Mary R. on 24 Jul 2024 review stating Playing when I want to
I haven't used it much yet, but when I first received it, I tried it and was very happy with the soft sound. I know I will have times in the future when I will be so happy I have this to use when my Husband is napping and I want to practice:)

Review by Ernest B. on 7 Feb 2024 review stating Mute is ok
Can’t adjust to stop the vibrations. Tried pressing together, moving it up or down and considered using pliers to squeeze together. 5 string

Makes the banjo much quieter, but it still sounds good. Easy to put on and take off.

Quiet enough not to wake a sleeping baby in the next room
Review by Will F. on 11 Apr 2023 review stating Quiet enough not to wake a sleeping baby in the next room
The description for this banjo mute says, "The sound is much quieter, but still a very pleasant sound, this will help keep peace in the home when the baby is sleeping."

t rooms---and my playing has yet to disturb any of them! I'll add a slight disclaimer that I play clawhammer on an open-back banjo, so your result may differ with a resonator and such.
Overall, I'm very pleased with this product and would highly recommend it. Read LessRead less about The description for this banjo mute

I can play my banjo in the next room while my wife watches TV or reads and it doesn’t disturb her. Makes for a happy marriage!

Q: Will the Deering mute fit my D-12?
Answers (1)

Deering Banjos

A: If you have one of our newer D-12 banjos with the thinner bridge, you should have no problem using the mute. It merely slips under the strings and around the bridge. In the past, our bridges for the 6-string banjos were thicker. If you have one of those, this mute may not be able to fit around it. Thanks for asking.

A: It slips around the bridge and under the strings. The picture on the website is accurate. Just put the bridge between the two "fingers of the mute and slide it around the bridge/under the strings.

Q: Hi.
Do you have a video/audio piece demonstrating difference with and without the banjo bridge mute? Would be interesting to see how different it is than a towel.

Q: Are pre-06 tone rings and 06 tone rings interchangeable? Would there be any noticeable sound advantage in doing so on a Maple Blossom
~Tenor banjo? What is the cost of an 06 tone ring?

A: No...the rims are cut differently. The new rim will make your banjo sound fuller.
