I just wanted to share my recent experience with the Roberto Winds ligature.

Yes, it does look like a napkin ring, but it plays beautifully! I do not think I have ever played on a ligature giving me such a vibrant sound. Wow! Everyone needs to give this one a try....

Cannonball24,

Are you using the Ebony version or the Cocobolo?

 

[STEEL]

ive found from my experience that they work great if they fit the mouthpiece properly, so the trouble is just finding the right size and having a mouthpiece that the available sizes fit on

 

[INTJazz]

I second that question: ebony or Cocobolo, Cannonball?

Also, what type of ligature, reed, mouthpiece setup were you using previously? How would you characterize the differences?

Oh my, just what saxophone world needs the most, another miraculous ligature ....

I really love this ligature! I've been playing on it for about 7 months with a variety of mpcs. I have the ebony piece and have used it with an NY USA Meyer, V16, Acoustimer, and Acoustimax. It really adds a lot to the response of the mpcs.

Does anybody know if the Roberto ligature can fit an Otto link reso Chamber tenor (the body is a bit bigger than a slant link)?
I gave Roberto a phone call already but they did not know the answer.

I know George Garzone is currently using one of these, and he mentioned that Joe Lovano is also using one these days.

Does anyone know what these cost? I'm also wondering how they are at holding the reed when you tune.

Oh my, just what saxophone world needs the most, another miraculous ligature ....

And for only $95.00!

I won one of these for $30-something on eBay. Can't wait to try it.....I'm skeptical to say the least, but the list of guys using these finally seduced me. Garzone, Lovano, Frahm , Jaleel Shaw, Sam Newsome.....it was just too much to resist!
