Don’t know much about TrumCor? Let’s catch you up:


“For three decades, TrumCor has been at the forefront of quality and innovation, crafting premier mutes for the world's finest brass players. Handcrafted in Tennessee, these mutes uphold a rich tradition initiated by Frank DePolis and refined by Ted Griffith and Aulos Mutes.
