good question!
I'm not sure. The new tenor version looks like this:

It doesn't look like it would work. I was blown away, because most practice mutes get squirrely up high. Tried it on a small-bore jazz horn.
Bass is my main axe, and I might look for one in the future.
I do like the older style mutes like Wick. They work well for helping students to open up. Blow like crazy, and try to get a harmon-like rattle out of the mute. Once the mute is removed most players will sound fuller. The downside is the wacky pitch.
