WTB Schlipf #5 Practice Mute

Post by The Brute Squad »

Looking for a Schlipf #5 for my new Wessex Gnagey. It's out of stock at Buddy Rogers and Chris mentioned to me they might stop carrying them altogether.

I think Lee Stofer used to sell these mutes. I don't know if he still does.

Willis Music/Buddy Roger's Music is the US dealer for Schlipf mutes but getting new stock from Herr Schlipfinger has been cost prohibitive. I am actively searching for an efficient method by which to ship stock that doesn't double the cost of the product. Please be patient with us and if we're able, we'll get the mutes back in stock.

Thanks for the update, Chris. I'm still toying with your other suggestion (the Wick), but will probably hold out for a Schlipf unless it becomes impossible/prohibitively expensive.
