Merf Gumby Mute International?

[EriKon]

Does anyone know where to get the gumby mutes in Europe? They don't sell them international on the web page. As dealers I've just found Austin Brass who doesn't have the bass trombone version unfortunately and Landress which has incredible shipping fees that are higher than the cost of a mute. Anyone knows anything?

Hmmm... don't give me ideas where to spend money!

If you get them, I'll order them from you, that's for sure!

Okay, correction: Austin Brass just caries trumpet mutes. So the only chance is Landress with shipping that costs almost 100 bucks for a mute (no customs included)... That seems to be a little odd to me.

Hey everybody Kyle here (half of Merf.)

I almost never post on here, but wanted to follow up on this. As many people know merf. is a passion project as Drew and I are full-time musicians and even fuller time dads.

I’ll hopefully be reaching out to some distributors the next year to figure out the process for overseas distribution but at the moment with our schedules and families, we have a hard enough time keeping up with production as it is.

I totally understand the frustration with the high shipping fees and and sincerely apologize that it’s not an easier process. My recommendation would be to maybe do a larger group order through Landress or Baltimore Brass. Maybe that will make up for some of the shipping costs if they don’t carry what you need let me know and I’ll put in a request through the request directly to them.

merf.
