Has anyone thought about a Non-stop Transposing Mute?

One of the best mutes I ever tried was a plastic detergent bottle with cork
strips glued to the side.  It was far, far better than the old red and white
Hulmes and Berg mute I was using at the time - in tune and good right down
into the low register.

It just looked a bit daft.

I still have it and my students use it if, for some reason, they don't have
their own mute with them.

Cheers,

Lawrence
