Denis Wick 5522 Alto Trombone / Small Flugelhorn Straight Mute

Made from high‑quality hand‑spun aluminum with a bright, resonant finish, the Denis Wick DW5522 straight mute for alto trombone or small flugelhorn delivers excellent projection with stable, accurate intonation across all registers. It is the slightly larger counterpart to the classic Denis Wick trumpet straight mute and shares the same design principles that have made these mutes a benchmark of quality since 1968. The open design produces a full, balanced muted tone with a free‑blowing feel that doesn’t choke the instrument’s response, allowing for expressive dynamics from controlled pianissimo to powerful fortissimo. Real cork fittings ensure a secure, stable placement in the bell for consistent performance in orchestral, ensemble or solo settings.
