Where Purchased: Mike's website
I live in an apartment complex with thin floors. I love playing my banjo. My banjo is loud.
Jokes aside, I was skeptical about shelling out over 30 bucks for a metal bridge clip, but Mike's mute really is worth every penny. You can't really get a banjo mute which allows you to keep your full bluegrass tone quality with a fraction of the volume, so the somewhat metallic sound threw me for a loop at first. But it's not grading, it's almost serene and harmonious, like playing an electric guitar with no distortion on minimum volume. Great for some melodic or slower pieces as a bonus.
And now I can practice at night. Good on ya, Mike.
