    The V12 sounds much better, but as already commented previously by Em Jay, I strongly recommend the D’Addario & the Rico Grand concert Select Blue Box. It sounds much better and has a finer surface finishment, which prevents hurts on the lips by long studie's time.

    To me the V12 sounds better, but that heavily depends on your mouthpiece as well as your chops, as the V12 bass reeds generally run 1/4 strength harder than the Blue Box(on Bb it's the other way round which makes it more confusing!) so stronger chops is needed for the former; and I've found certain mouthpieces work better with either one of them but less so with the other cut, so that may influence the outcome too!

    I stumbled upon this video because I’m having some trouble (great vid btw!). I was thinking of looking into a new ligature, I have both a Jewel and an inverted Bonade. I was thinking of trying the Rico one, although now I’m not sure. Do you have any feedback for which one you think is worth getting? Thanks!

    • @amiema3775

      Try the BG Duo. It's pretty expensive, but you can probably find it used for a good deal. I put the link below www.amazon.com/BG-LD-Ligature-Saxophone-Gold-Plated/dp/B005DOJFEK/ref=asc_df_B005DOJFEK/?tag=bingshoppinga-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=&hvpos=&hvnetw=o&hvrand=&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4583932699712049&psc=1

    The Silverstein ligature is pretty impressive if it supports the tonal characteristics you're looking for. I loved your tone with the Silverstein . I use on on alto saxophone but....I don't use it if I wanna' play the blues

    Rico H was best, especially the high notes. But she changed them very quickly so how careful was she with reed placement.

    I’m currently using two hair ties because the ligature that came with my clarinet slides off. It’s really annoying. This is helpful. I’ll be saving up

    • @amiema3775
      @amiema3775 5 років тому

      Hi Kitty. Another way around the sliding is wrapping your mouthpiece with electrical tape so that the ligature has a better surface to stay put!

    Amy, This was very helpful. I am an old codger who has been playing fo about 65 years. I have a D.Bonade ligature that came with my Pete Fountain Big easy by LeBlanc. It had a crystal mouthpiece. I now play on seller as crystal mouthpieces don't bounce very well and were getting expensive. I was using a leather ligature but it stretched and became difficult to play. Your review was great. Benny Goodman and Artie Shaw were my favorites.

    Amie Ma ligature review video Very interesting. The Rico "H" rights must have been obtained from the Harrison ligature company. It has the same stylised "H" which was an attempt to create a metal "string tied" affect. Very popular when it came out. Several different finishes were available including gold and silver. Expensive in it's day. Players would have the Bonade Inverted customized by sawing out a horizontal portion of the vertical "railed" piece that ran from top to bottom as it rested on the reed, creating a top and bottom railed "ring" that then could resonate independently from each other, sexy! My son, who is in the clarinet studio at UW-Eau Claire has recently started using a Silverstein. Many models running from expensive to insane! Again, reinventing the "string tie". Exotic space age materials (including carbon) woven together to make the string. So much FUN !

    Your mention of the Selmer-style ligatures that clarinetists of the 1930's and 1940's used, Benny Goodman often cocked his to the side, putting the screws in the 2 o' clock position on the mouthpiece. I asked him about it in an interview, and he said it seemed to make the tone fuller and more consistent throughout the range.

    They all seem to do their job properly of holding reed to mouthpiece. Perhaps the only difference is their respective availability and the prices.
