I think it came from Schaff, but it's been a few years ago, so I don't remember. I don't often use the mute end of it anymore, but have found the other end to be quite useful for inserting strip mutes. I ground the sharp corners off the steel end, and made it slightly angled to make it easier to insert a strip mute into the treble section of verticals. -- JF -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
