Overall five stars for style, durability and functionality for my mutes. My only concern is the top zipper; I would have liked a more robust zipper, but hopefully it will pose no long-term problem.
Disappointed. Smaller than I thought. For $80 I expected better. Probably will return and go back to my Protech.ii
Very pleased with how much it holds - all my mutes and gig equipment. Great bag!
Great company that replaced my bag! Love it!
This is such a great bag!!! I've only had it for a little bit now, but it’s working so well!
Just purchased the bass bone mute bag. Although I don't play bass bone(yet) the bass bone bag is the perfect size for all my jazz tenor bone mute needs. Thanks
I love it! It’s just the right size. It holds all the mutes I need plus room for a few extra accoutrements. I like that the separators are adjustable so I can trust that my mutes will not gather any (more) dents.
Keychain from Initial shipment was unfortunately arrived broken. Issue was addressed immediately. A replacement was sent out and arrived in less than a week. All good now. Super cute trombone keychain. Thank you so very much!
Well made bag! Very much thought out in design. I look forward to taking it out on my next gig!
I do tend to use more than three mutes though, so I will have to utilize the upper compartment for my additional mutes. My IPad Pro has a case on it, so the side zippered compartment that they show an iPad being put into is now too small for it to fit. It can however fit inside the deep upper internal compartment that I believe is intended for sheet music. My trumpet bag has a pouch for music though, so that doesn't introduce an issue for me. They don't mention it but this mute bag does have a charging cord that extends from the upper compartment out through the shell to a fixed plugged location. I have placed a portable charger inside the zippered pocket that's next to the cord, to connect to this. I can simply connect my devices to that fixed plug. I might have liked having a usb-c plug though instead of the given usb plug. Still a cool idea though. Lots of pockets overall for additional storage!
I'm used to having to carry my mute bag by hand, so having this backpack style bag will free up a hand to carry something else!
I will recommend the My Mutebag Backpack to other players!
Product arrived as described. I filled it from my old gig bag and threw it the old one away. Looking forward to using my new one this weekend!
Admittedly, I was using a backpack that work gave me for free, as it was something that would carry my mutes, music and real books for my rehearsals. While this was a quick remedy to get me going from home to rehearsal, it was not fully protecting my mutes. This Mutebag backpack is great! I really love that there is a mute bag inside of the backpack that can be accessed from the side, while keeping my music in place. I also really dig the built-in usb connection so I can connect my power bank to keep my phone charged. I feel this bag keeps me organized. Very happy with my purchase and fast delivery too!
I received this mute bag as a gift from a friend who won it at ITG 2025, so I have zero money in the game for this, nor did I know how much one costs new. I am an orchestral and solo trumpet player and at any given time I need two to five mutes, plus a single stand and various bits and bobs. I had had a protec 6 mute bag for almost a decade and assumed it was the only option. This little blue titan fits my straight, adjustable cup, stand, harmon, plunger, practice, and piccolo mute while having zero difficulty closing or zipping the bag! It's tiny as all get-out, beautifully crafted, and the front and back pockets hold every pencil, oil, and even a pedal page turner. There is literally no other mute bag I will ever recommend to anyone else and I plan to buy the backback and just swap the included mute bag for my current one.
“Right-sized” for most gigging trumpet players, the bag perfectly balances functionality, protection, storage, and style! I fit three mutes, a plunger, and key additional accessories. My only regret is not buying it the first 20 times I saw the ads online!
Well thoughtout and perfect for those of us who have electronics (ipad, page turner) in addition to mutes! Everything in its place!
This backpack mute bag is a game changer. It is very well made and holds way more “stuff” than you think it should. It is designed for practicality and has cut down the number of bags I have to use to get ready for a gig. This was one of the best purchases I have made. I’m a big fan.
This Mutebag is great! I can now consolidate two protec bags into one Mutebag and carry it on my shoulders! Plus, it'll fit in an overhead compartment!
Bravo, Mutebags!
Lots of room for my gear. I especially like the separate mute bag. The straps on the bottom hold my Tablet stand in place securely.
It is and awesome bag with a lot of room for the mutes and also for sheet music, iPad and other stuff that we use on a daily basis. Great design!
The day I received this bag, I instantly fell in love with it. It’s not too big or small and has a ton of features, making it the perfect bag!
Very expensive for a mute bag not much bigger than the Protec, at twice the price. I would rather have a wider bag instead of taller. I can get more mutes in the Mutebag, but only by dumping some on top of others. I've spent too much on good mutes to want them banged up. I like that there is room for me to store a paper folder, but wish it would fit a concert folder. The build quality seems good, but overall not worth the money.
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.
