{"product_id":"755223","title":"BEST BRASS Best Brass \/ Wah-wah \u0026 Cool Jazz Copper Trumpet Wah-Wah Mute","description":"Sound Transformer \"Trumpet\/Wah-Wah\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e High Quality Sound\u003cbr\u003e Co-developed by leading Japanese soloist Sogabe Kiyonori and Best Brass' Shinji Hamanaga.\u003cbr\u003e The high-quality sound that satisfies professional performers is the result of meticulous design and complete handmade construction.\u003cbr\u003e At Best Brass, we use the name Sound Transformer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Material\u003cbr\u003e The Sound Transformer (Trumpet\/Wah-Wah) is made from three different materials: aluminum, copper, and brass.\u003cbr\u003e The sound changes depending on the physical properties of each metal. Aluminum is a light and soft material, so it produces a light, bright and brilliant sound.\u003cbr\u003e Copper has a high specific gravity and is relatively soft, resulting in a rich, dark sound.\u003cbr\u003e Brass has a specific gravity similar to that of copper and is a sturdy material, so it is characterized by a bright, rich sound with a moderate weight.\u003cbr\u003e The beautiful hairline finish on the surface makes it possible to produce a clearer, more brilliant sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Pitch\u003cbr\u003e The so-called Harman mute (used with the wah-wah tube removed) produces a noticeable rise in pitch.\u003cbr\u003e For a Bb trumpet, the main tuning slide needs to be pulled out about 15 to 25 mm more than when opened.\u003cbr\u003e This means you will need to adjust the volume every time you turn it on and off during a song.\u003cbr\u003e In fact, you may not have time to remove the main tuning slide and end up playing at a very high pitch. If you install a Best Brass Sound Transformer, it is designed to keep the pitch of the instrument the same as when it is open.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Intonation\u003cbr\u003e Generally, even when tuned to the correct pitch, there is often variation in the pitch in the low and high ranges.\u003cbr\u003e This is because the pitch was balanced when the bell was open, but by attaching something (a mute) to the tip of the bell, this good pitch balance was disrupted.\u003cbr\u003e This is fine if you are just using the mute as a sound effect, but for professionals who make a living from performing music, a mute with poor tune is useless.\u003cbr\u003e Try the Best Brass Sound Transformer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Free Blowing\u003cbr\u003e The Sound Transformer has passed the high-level blowing tests of experts, providing a natural blowing feel across the entire range.\u003cbr\u003e Until now, there has been no instrument that can produce a rich sound in the low range. This is because the most difficult part of acoustic design is in the low range, but Best Brass has improved even these shortcomings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Safety\u003cbr\u003e Because wah-wah mutes are attached to the bell, traditional cork mutes often fall out during performance.\u003cbr\u003e This will make it difficult to concentrate on playing, and the loud noise of the falling instrument will ruin the music itself.\u003cbr\u003e Best Brass' Sound Transformer\/Wah-Wah uses a special sponge to improve installation performance.\u003cbr\u003e It is gentle on the bell and can be attached securely. This is a Best Brass sound transformer that has been carefully designed down to the smallest detail, with the aim of making everything musical.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWah-wah \u0026amp; Cool Jazz Wah-Wah Mute, Copper [for Trumpet]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Material: Copper Dimensions: 159 x Φ113 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e Weight \/ 168g","brand":"BEST BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42492756983921,"sku":"755223","price":111.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/Best_Brass___Wah-wah___Cool_Jazz_Copper_Trumpet_Wah-Wah_Mute_01.jpg?v=1759428953","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/zh-hans\/products\/755223","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
