Thanks for the video! The new version is way better. It is so great that manufacturers meet the expectations and reviews of real players and constantly improve their products. This mute totally worth adding to a collection.

Appreciate you checking out the video! Yeah, it’s great how they updated it, for sure worth getting, especially if you dig the leather look (which is far nicer than an actual plunger) for the bandstand.
