I love Jo-Ral straight mutes for my trumpet - they sound great and they look great. I hate how they have a sharp metal edge at the top, and the felt they glue on lasts for all of a week before it wears through.
Print this little cap from TPU and push it down over the top lip of the mute to protect your trumpet's finish from the mute. I have been using this for years on my older ‘90s mute, and when I purchased a brand new one in '24 I realized the design hadn’t changed, so I printed more and uploaded it here for others.
I have not noticed any change in the performance, sound, or response of the mute with this installed. I do notice that I no longer have a sharp metal edge scratching up my bell during frantic changes where the composer only gives you 4 beats to jam the mute up in there.
This will not work unless printed from TPU. It also likely won't work with any other brand of mutes - it's sized just right to be semi-permanent without glue on the Jo-Ral straight mutes. I've tried it on the all aluminum and the copper bottom versions and it fits both.
