[Trombone-l] bass trombone solo tone mute

[Denny Seifried]

Richard----------I believe that has been answered before, maybe by someone 
like Gabe Langfur.

If I remember the answer----take a tenor solo-tone and have a repair tech 
build-up the corks to fit the throat of your bass trombone bell.

Hope that is the correct answer.
