UFM: Unidentified Foam Mute

Sign in to disble this ad
Anyone have any idea what the hell this mute is on this bass?

Check out this pic of Sylvain Daniel with the Orchestre National de Jazz:



I hope that link works...either way, it's a screen capture from 0:27 in this video:

ORCHESTRE NATIONAL DE JAZZ DANIEL YVINEC "SHUT UP AND DANCE" - YouTube

And hey, while we're at it, what the heck is that bass? It's a sort of Laklandy shape with a kind of Sadowsky-ish headstock, some sort of P/J combo with a toggle to change pickups...?!

But mostly...I want that mute!

BTW, another good shot of the bass (and mute) at 3:27 in the video.

Could be home-made with a foam hair curler.
