Being all copper, it's heavier than the regular aluminum Harmon. The sound is really nice! I only use my regular Harmon with my cornet now. I love it!

This Harmon is much heavier than the aluminum one I have used for so long. Because it is heavier, it has a very different tone- less distorted than the aluminum. Whether that is good or not depends on the sound you prefer. A versatile player may opt to have one of each type. Love the look of the copper!

I love the sound and the beauty of it, but it just won’t stay in the bell at all. Cork is thin and flat, it is relatively shallow so not gripping a bell. Too bad I had to return it.

Very solid, yet heavy. Will not stay in bell, so hand support while playing. Takes practice, like all instruments.

I'm very pleased with the quality sound I achieve with this Harmon mute. It is noticeably better than the less expensive aluminum unit. So far, I have not had any problems with the mute falling out of my trumpet bell. This is a professional quality trumpet mute.UPDATE: 2024Still have not had any problems with the mute falling out of the bell. I will say however, that you need to play a tad louder to get a nice Harmon tone from this mute. Not a huge issue but might not be the best mute for a younger or newer player. I'm still glad I purchased this mute.

So when I first ordered this mute they sent me an aluminum one on accident at first. For a time I had both the Aluminum one and Copper one and had the chance to compare. The Copper one did seem darker, shakier at lower tones especially and high volumes. That being said it's heavy in comparison to the Aluminum one. On the plus side this copper one had a coating on the outside that maintained the shiny penny like finish. I love the way the mute sounds but would have after the fact likely gone with the Aluminum for the price sound and weight. The Aluminum one sounds authentic and will stay in your bell much nicer I'd say for a good bit cheaper. If you haven't tried either of the two consider the original Harmon sound.

I bought the copper Harmon mute to replace an aluminum Harmon mute that was destroyed. I love the sound but did not anticipate the extra weight. While the difference is very little, it was enough to throw me off the first time I used it (it kept pulling the end of the horn down); and since I was performing at a gig, it bothered me. While I would easily recommend this mute to any serious trumpet player, I will also caution about the weight differential. Don't do what I did; practice with it for a while before performing.
