The MusicMan one isn't quite so bad, because not only are the screws thumbwheels so you can do it without a screwdriver, the mutes are much closer to the bridge so they don't push the intonation out quite as badly.
James Jamerson used a piece of ordinary sponge, which is a much better material.

Maybe I'll just go with a sponge then in that case. Thanks for the info! I've not used one of these mutes before so was unaware of the problems. It makes sense as to why they're not included on reissues then!
i might have some strips of black foam at work that could be cut down. I’ll check on Friday.
