Abstract
A damper for a stringed instrument has an elastic foldable web provided with catch members positioned at the end portions thereof, a hinge portion positioned at the longitudinally central portion thereof and notches of substantially isosceles triangular shape disposed close to and outwardly from the hinge portion. On the inner surface of the foldable web a resilient spongy member is secured. When the foldable web is folded for holding the strings of a stringed instrument in between the upper and lower layers of the resilient spongy member and the catch members are fastened, the strings are compressed by the spongy member and the sounds produced from the strings may be lowered.
