I've tried every possible Rovner variation, going back to the original ones from the late 70's. I feel they don't allow me to push with the right abdominal muscles...I actually have another video where I compare over a dozen ligatures on my channel! As for Silverstein ligatures...I've never been a fan of any string-based ligature. As much as I love Karl Leister, Wenzel, and other players in the German & Austrian tradition, I don't get the colorful sound & efficient projection (AND variety of articulation) that I can with a good metal ligature (with high quality metal).
This is fascinating!!! So cool. All of these lig screws in this video are French, I believe. I have noticed, for example, paddle screws like on Portnoy ligatures are so small in diameter. I have also noticed this with, say, Harrison ligs.
just what we need -another variable added to the mix
Crazy man!
Waiting for your comparison 24k gold vs platinumnoir bonades. DON'T FORGET TO TELL ME PLEASE!!
Which combination did you like best?
What's your opinion about Silverstein and Rovner ligatures?

american screws are made by AP&M with 6-32 thread. French ligatures use a metric M4- 70 thread,so there is really no way of exchanging the screws
