Gewa Viola Roth Sihon · Mute

Ideal for orchestra, rehearsals and con sordino passages: The Roth-Sihon damper was specially developed for violists who regularly play muted passages in orchestras or ensembles. It enables reliable sound reduction and supports controlled, balanced tone development. Stronger damping effect than classic Tourte mutes: The proven construction of wire and soft plastic tubing produces a more intensive sound damping than conventional Tourte mutes. This effectively reduces volume and overtones – ideal for orchestral requirements and sensitive sound passages. Ready to use immediately and always on the instrument: The damper remains permanently attached between the middle strings and does not need to be removed or stored. For use, simply slide the plastic roller forward onto the top edge of the bridge – quick, uncomplicated, and without interrupting your playing. Easy installation and secure hold: The proven wire construction is simply attached between the A and D string and sits securely on the instrument. The damper remains ready to hand at all times in its place and can be quickly slid onto the bridge when required. Note: Regular sliding causes mechanical stress to the strings. With sensitive strings, the winding may show signs of wear with frequent use. Suitable for viola: Universally suitable for viola. The robust version ensures a long service life in daily rehearsal and concert use and makes the Roth-Sihon damper a proven accessory for ambitious string players and orchestral musicians.
