  1. Ligatures
    Hello Everyone, I've searched the forum and can't seem to find any threads on the current Selmer Paris single screw ligature. Does anybody have any thoughts or experience with it? See link below for the one I'm referring to. https://www.selmer.fr/en/products/ligature-pour-saxophone-alto
  2. Ligatures
    Hi, this is my take on ligatures and a general question about Ishimori ligatures. I've been at a conservatory for classical saxophone since the beginning of this school year (23-24), and almost everyone in my studio tends to use certain equipment more than others. Although there is no...
  3. Ligatures
    Hi, I have 2 generic two-screw ligatures that I decided to try instead of my Rovner "leather" ligature. I really liked the way that they played more than mt Rovner, but they both damaged my reeds. I first tried the stock Meyer ligature, this is on alto by the way. I tightened it too much so it...
  4. Ligatures
    I just obtained a vintage metal Dukoff Tenor mouthpiece and I have been looking for a ligature to pair with it. After some digging I came across the FL ultimate ligature, it looks pretty weird but I've always been a fan for unique and interesting ligatures designs. However, after looking at some...

    I've always been a huge fan of the vintage Harrison ligature so when I saw that D'addario had released a replica of the famed Harrison ligature I was ecstatic, not to mention the variety of sizing options and relatively cheap price for a quality ligature. However, after reading reviews on this...

    Hey everyone, I was recommended by my teacher to look into upgrading my mouthpiece. I've played for about 6+ years now so I would say I'm decently experienced and am looking for a more advanced mouthpiece option. Currently, I play on a JodyJazz HR* 6M (with a Rovner Dark + DAddario Select Jazz...
  7. Ligatures
    I recently bought a Jody Jazz 7* DV chi tenor and I absolutely love how it plays. However, I really dislike the stock d'addario H ligature that came with it, so I am looking to upgrade. I don't believe that the ligature has a huge impact on one's sound but I do believe that a good ligature can...

    Hi everyone. This ligature came supplied with an Otto Link Connoisseur Series Early Babbitt Tone Edge HR Tenor Mouthpiece. It looks different than the basic ligatures shown with these mouthpieces on various commercial websites. It seems to have these "heavy mass" sort of screws going on. It's...

    I recently purchased a GS Slant 7* which is a copy of a vintage Otto Link Florida Slant Signature Tone Edge. I’m curious what the ideal ligature is. I have played on primary metal mouthpieces and do not own a ligature compatible with the slant. I’m looking for something ideal for a dark Getzy...

    Hi all, Can anyone please recommend me a ligature to use with my tenor Beechler Bellite? Hoping not to break the bank! Thanks, - Jonathan

    I play on a SYOS custom tenor mouthpiece, with one of the designs on the sides. I just received the superlative ligature and when I try to put it on, it just keeps slipping up the mouthpiece and it doesn’t stay. I’ve tried messing with the screws all I can. I haven’t been able to find anything...
  12. Sax vs. Sax, Mpc vs. Mpc, etc.
    Hi all, After looking through ligs, it is clear to me that I don't want to pay more than $30 for one, being that they make such little difference in sound. I use a Vandoren Jumbo Java, and my D'addario H has recently broke, so i'm planning on getting a new one. (my other mouthpiece has a much...
  13. Ligatures
    Hello! I (for some reason) collect old ligatures! Over the years I have obtained 4 of these eddie daniels ligatures. They feature two metal plates on the bottom, and several plastic "ribs" around the inside of the ligature. One of them for some reason has a different type of leather, shown...

    I've been using Legere synthetic for both alto and tenor. The Legere reeds are thinner than cane reeds so I find I need to close up the ligature really tight to keep the reed from moving easily. Recently, I've noticed that the ligature has no space between the two sides where the screws close...
