Seven. All but two are straightforward two screw ligs.

 

[Martinman]

I think I have 10.

Steve, now you will have to put sound clips on your site with all your mouthpieces using the different ligs.

You say in jest but it wouldn't surprise me if someone did it!!

 

[fballatore]

Less than the number of mouthpieces.

Ditto, but only slightly less. I think.

 

[Sigmund451]

Ive got some nice ones and some cheapos. Im pretty convinced that the cheap ones sound every bit as good as the expensive ones. Im starting to base my lig use on what fits the best and doesnt move around so easy when adjusting the mpc on the cork.

 

[LeftySaxDude]

I remember lessons with Roy Allen jr. and in his office he had a desk covered with ligatures and reeds. I would guess he had at least 30 ligatures.

 

[daigle65]

10 ligatures
4 of them Rovners...and I don't like Rovners but I went throught a phase.
My best ones are an Optimum on alto and FL on tenor.

 

[Nefertiti]

i actually did make some sound clips with different ligatures awhile back and had it as a poll on my website.

About ten. This is for all four saxophones, clarinet, and bass clarinet. I guess the biggest GAS culprit is tenor for which I have four, two for each mouthpiece size.
