Hirschman Mutes KR Indigo Plunger Mute for Trumpet

Hirschman Mutes “KR Indigo” (Standard) Plunger Mute: Traditional Size, Innovative Performance

Developed alongside the acclaimed MAX plunger, the “KR Indigo” (Standard) offers the same renowned intonation, comfort, and expressive potential—but in a more traditionally sized design. Based on feedback from players who loved the MAX’s sound but wanted a smaller profile, this plunger delivers a seamless blend of modern features and classic feel.

Remarkably In-Tune from Low to High

• Stable Pitch, Less Fatigue
  Consistent intonation in both open and fully closed positions minimizes “lipping” of notes, preserving your endurance and letting you focus on the music.
• Ensemble-Ready
  Ideal for tight-section passages where being in tune with your fellow trumpeters is crucial.

Kenny Penny™ Venting System

• Customizable Sound
  Adjust the inner and outer pennies to open or close the plunger hole—no drilling required.
• Find Your “Two Cents”
  Prefer a closed hole over straight mute? An open hole for plunger alone? It’s entirely up to you.

Comfortably Fits Any Hand

• Traditional Size
  Slightly smaller than the MAX for those who prefer a classic feel or have smaller hands.
• No-Slip Hand Grip
  Designed for a secure, comfortable hold—no more awkward drops mid-gig.

Built to Last

• Durable Silicon
  Resists drying and cracking common with standard rubber plungers, ensuring a longer lifespan.
• Fits Over Most Standard Straight Mutes
  Say goodbye to stuffy, out-of-tune pixie mutes—keep your favorite straight mute in play with the KR Indigo (Standard).

Expressive Tone Hole

• Create Unique Effects
  With the Kenny Penny in the open position, cover or uncover the tone hole to add an extra layer of color and creativity.

Distinctive Color for the 21st Century

Mood Indigo Inspiration
A nod to Duke Ellington, Snooky Young, and Clark Terry’s iconic blue plungers—updated for the modern player.
