Hi Mary Ellen

We're very happy with our set of PETER GAIN mutes.  They're hand made in
Wales I think. As I understand the setup, they are made to order
(payment with order).  I think we got them through Fred Rhodes Ltd but I
haven't got a contact number for them. I'd get your order in early if I
were you - has anyone got a contact number out there??

I've actually ended up with 2 brand new PG flugel mutes if anyone would
care to make me an offer.  

I got a bit over zealous on the "covering my back and ordering in a
panic front" in the run up to Dances & Arias last year. Corks not even
licked you'll pleased to hear!

Cheers
Alan
Flugel, 
Redbridge Brass
