I LOVE the idea of a mute bag backpack. It makes carrying my mutes, mic cables, 12.9 iPad and 'stuff' much more convenient. There is also a bottom compartment with a separate divided mute bag.
This is a well designed and well made backpack with multiple zipped pockets. In addition, this backpack can pull double duty as a carry-on bag when flying, and has a sleeve on the back side to make it possible to slide the backpack over the trumpet or suitcase handle. This was one of the best purchases I've made for transporting 'stuff' to gigs.
Pros:The bag looks nice. Pockets inside will hold my straight mute, cup mute, and one more mute.
Cons: tablet pouch is a little too small for my 13” iPad Air. The snaps will not snap. The other pouch will not hold my tablet. I think it will work for my folder of music if needed. The zipper and zipper pull should be made more heavy duty. I hope it holds up to the rigors of gigging.
The perfect size to fit a cup, harmon, bucket, straight mute, and plunger. Looks amazing as well, very quality build.
I can’t believe I have been carelessly carrying my mutes around in a reusable grocery bag, subjecting them to needless wear and tear. Two things attracted me to Mutebag:
1. Construction and Color: made of sturdy canvas instead of nylon and color choice let me coordinate with my trombone case.
2. Slhoulder strap: make this bag easier to carry than all the others. I’m usually toting a Manhasset stand to rehearsals and the shoulder makes the whole combo easier to manage.
Lastly, I’m a fan of well made products that are built to last. It’s exactly the bag I want and won’t have to replace soon.
Thanks for the thoughtful review!
Outstanding. I too, have been on a quest for such a bag. I’m genuinely grateful to find this one. Love the structure yet flexibility.
Deluxe!
Happy to hear this! I really appreciate the support!
I love it. It is better protection and very well made....this is my 2nd one that I bought.
I usually carry 2 horns plus a full complement of mutes. I use a Gard compact triple case with one of the partitions set up for mutes. But now doing a show which requires a Straight, Cup, Harmon, Plunger, and additionally a Bucket and Cleartone. And for warmup I use a small practice mute. And as of that’s enough, I use a stand mounted mute holder and a foot pedal. So, I was looking to carry the extra and if possible not carry mutes in the horn case. Mission accomplished. Got everything in the new bag without having to put any thing other than horns in the Gard case. Quality is great. Delivery was fast. Customer Service is spot on. Five Stars.
Rock on! Thank you for your detailed review!
So far I’m really liking this bag. Unfortunately the roominess encourages me to find more stuff to put into it. I do have to put my orchestra folder in the outside pocket which shouldn’t be a rain issue, hopefully. My iPad and mutes, even my KraftGeek music stand all fit easily inside. Best impulse buy of 2025!
I can tell that this bag was designed by a brass player, for a brass player. It is high quality, from the metal used on the strap to the thick material the bag is made of. It also looks really nice, which is a plus! I'm excited to show my new mute bag off!
Just received my new My mutebag in Black, and it’s fantastic. It holds all of my mutes, mouthpiece pouch, iPad, trumpet stands and the Broadway Mute Mate! And, some bottled water on the outside!! Thanks Mymutebag!!!!
I'm not sure how to use the Velcro panels in the bag. I wish it was slightly larger. It seems to work fine for three mutes.
Best purchase ever!!! If you are a musician or music teacher, this is the bag you’ve been looking for.
So happy to hear this! Rock on!!
I ordered this mute bag to solve issues with previous mute bag weighting by trumpet case down and falling over.
This bag is the best. Room for an iPad, mutes and a stand. Many pockets! You will love this!
So happy to hear this! Thanks for sharing!
A fantastic bag allows me to carry everything in one simple bag. Also the customer service department is amazing. Thanks!
Rock on! Thanks for your review!
Fantastic quality and customer service - I did intend to get the other model with straps for a stand, but I’m beginning to reconsider because I like this model so much
Even though i’m a tenor tboner the bass bone bag is perfect, tenor bone bag was too small.
I have so many items to bring to rehearsals and concerts so although I play trumpet I bought the trombone mute bag. It has been great.
Thanks
Great material. But a little bit small. After I put mutes in the bag, there is no more space for front and back pocket. I would recommend to buy bigger size such as trombone mute case size.
I love this bag. It doesn’t collapse, holds several tenor trombone mutes, (Soulo bucket, cup, straight mute, plunger, my bag of oils, etc, bottle of water,
Small umbrella, it has external pockets for music, cell phone, ear plugs. What a nice bag!
