Mute stuff for Fender Bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Hello,
I´m looking for the mute stuff for a Fender Bass, fixed on the bridge cover. I´d take also the bridge cover with that stuff. For a Precision. Who can help me. Fender can´t.

best regards
Zoltan

I use a piece of the foam that's used underneath a single-coil guitar pickup, stuck on with double-face tape. It's thick enough to mute the strings and long enough to cover all four strings.

stratovani has the right idea. i HAVE seen pickup mounting foam sold (with a Fender logo) as bass mute foam. It works great - just stick in inside the bridge cover where it will cover the strings and you're good to go!

If you only need the mute for a couple of tunes just roll up a paper napkin and place it under the strings right at the bridge, it works fine on my P-bass.
