Most drummers have experienced the problem of noise complaints practicing in apartments or late at night. Cymbals can be loud and penetrating but Sound Percussion s Ride/Cymbal Mute quiets the sound yet retains the feel of the cymbal itself. Designed for crash and ride cymbals the mute is constructed of an ultra-thin material that closely approximates the feel and touch of a stick hitting the cymbal. Immediately drummers will notice a vast improvement over existing mutes and the makeshift use of towels tape and blankets. It is a breeze to set up and installs and removes in seconds; just place the mute on the cymbal and play.
