[Trombone-l] Plunger Mute question...

[Jeff Albert]

There are multiple sizes, although the hardware store might not have
multiple sizes.  I have found that most stores have the 5.5 inch variety.
 You can get 6 inch ones, and I like the bigger ones.  I don't know that it
really makes all that much difference, but I have a stack of them, and swear
they all sound different. ;)
