Harmon

Harmon is an American maker of brass instrument mutes, particularly associated with trumpet wah-wah mutes. Its range includes straight and cup mutes alongside its Wow Wow designs, with products made from aluminium, copper or a combination of the two metals.

The Harmon name is closely associated with the distinctive muted trumpet sound heard in jazz. Its wah-wah designs feature a removable central stem; changing the stem position or covering its opening alters the sound. The range also includes French-style and barrel-shaped straight mutes, trombone straight mutes and the Triple Play cup combination mute.

At MyGear’s partner retailers, Harmon currently has 17 products in stock, priced from £20 to £72. This places the listed range in the brass-accessory market rather than among complete instruments, with options spanning straightforward straight mutes and more specialised mute designs.
