Schlipf practice mute for HB-2P

Post by dsfinley »

Was wondering if anyone knew what size Schlipf practice mute would fit in a Hirsbrunner HB-2P? I was thinking either a 4 or a 5 from the descriptions on Thomann music however I’m not sure.

I think either @Lee Stofer or @BuddyRogersMusic music would know.

#8 is the size I have listed for the HB 4/4. I have them in stock and ready to ship. If you're attending the Army Workshop, I will have every size there for play testing.

Message or email me for more details, chite AT buddyrogers DOT com.

Chris Hite at Buddy Rogers Music in Cincinnati, OH has been the North American representative for Schlipf mutes since
the late summer of 2020. He is the guy to contact for Schlipf mutes.

That said, I did have a like-new Schlipf euphonium combination tour mute some in, and will have it at the Army Band Tuba-Euphonium Conference
at Ft. Myer VA this weekend.
