Nordstrand nordymute 5 corde acero

these versatile gadgets are a simple combination of a sponge mute with a wood covering, which work to provide the player with dark, staccato articulation, forwarded by the vehicle of a nostalgic vintage subtlety. the essence of the nordymutes effect is akin to upright-like inhibition of resonance, a kind of execution of sustainits body subject to an almost unnaturally fast decay. but whats especially significant about the nordymute is the uniquely versatile quality it lends to the players particular style. a lot of mutes will stunt playability, creating an awkward relationship in player to instrument intonation and articulation. in contrast, the nordymute is designed for easy adjustment, giving the player modulating intonation and articulation instead of being stuck with one mode of mutabilityof mute-ation.this modulating quality comes from the mutes foam body pinching the strings, whereas most mutes push against them. to put it simply, pinch over push is what leaves the nordymutes intonation without compromise.

at the end of the day, the nordymute is a simple design that compacts our companys essence: a kind of microcosmic display defining how we will never subject ourselves to something that doesn't exceed our expectations. and besides all the technical jargon and effectual description, the nordymute is also just too damn cute. no player who uses a mute will be disappointed.
