A better mouthpiece cap & ligature than supplied at school
Carolyn R.✓ Verified Purchase•August 9, 2023
My granddaughter has a bass clarinet and a standard high school clarinet. She now has her own mouthpiece, case, cap, ligature and so on that replaced those suppied by the high school when she received them.
She really likes having her own accessories that are of better quality for playing and keeping her instruments clean and properly stored.

Worth trying.

Very light, delicate and I imagine, easily damaged.
However I found a noticeable difference between this ligature and the Vandoren Optimum that I've been using for several years.
The upper register seemed to improve and altissimo notes were easier, good articulation also. The lower register though, seemed a little more restrained than with the Optimum. They are both good and the single screw is easy to use, permitting rapid reed placement. I have switched to the M/O for the time being but I'd be happy to use either the M/O or the Optimum. Both equally good but different.

Great product in general.

I purchased this ligature and it arrived only 2 days after I ordered it!
I used it for a recital the day it arrived and it has amazing out-of-the-box playability. It makes a warm, sweet tone on my instrument.
However, when you store it on a mouthpiece with a mouthpiece cap, it is a pretty tight fit, not sure if that's how it is supposed to be.

Really, really great ligature

I have several ligatures and have tried several more. I first received this ligature WITH a mouthpiece. I did not get along well with the mouthpiece, so I returned it, and of course, the ligature had to go too. But I missed it! I love how it is so quick to align the reed and KEEP it aligned when tightening the ligature. To me, it sounds no different than my Silverstein (really, really expensive) ligature. Perhaps the Silverstein is a bit warmer, so I may keep using that for recording. But when I am working with reeds, changing them over and over during a session, the Silverstein is more cumbersome. Long story short, I ordered the M/O ligature by itself, because I missed it so much, and it is a keeper. I use it with my Grabner mouthpieces, it probably would work with all mouthpieces.
Nice up grade.

As a beginner I can only say I like it it's my first up grade to my clarinet. But as a beginner I did have to look up on how to use it. There was not instructions or paperwork with it. I know others would know how to use it but I didn't. Has it improved my playing? Can't say it has really other the I like the screw in the front instead of near my chin.
