Abstract:
A mute is provided that can be stored together with a wind instrument. A mute comprises a main body portion, a rod-like member, and an inner head. The main body portion comprises a body, a head, and a connecting member. When in use, a large diameter end of the body is connected to a large diameter end of the head. When the inner head is in a bell, the body is fixed to the inner circumferential face of the bell. For storage, the mute is reassembled into a mode for storage in which the body is separated from the head, the head is in the head, and the inner head is in the head. The entire mute reassembled into this mode is in the bell.
