I have used this homeade tool for over 10 years to tune unisons one string
at a time in the high treble of grands with an Acutuner..

take two rubber mutes and remove the wire handles

sand one side of each mute near the base and toward the thin end about 1/3rd
the way

super glue the sanded sides and stick em together

cut one of mutes on the thin end about 1/4 to 1/3 in.. so it's a little bit
shorter than the other

replace one wire handle into the longer mute.......

BINGO instant papps mute for grands

Good Luck   Tom Cobble RPT
