Favourite ligature out there!

Wayne Beatty 12.04.2018

Rovner ligs are by far my favourite ligature for almost all my mouthpieces. I find the make response and articulation easy and make the sound much warmer and easier to listen to. Give them a try. So many people use them and it's for a good reason!

It's a trade off..

I think the Rovner Dark ligature may appeal more to inexperienced players but less so as you progress with your playing. It does provide support to help give you a fuller, more solid tone, which is helpful when you first start to play. However, as you progress, you start to notice that it muffles the tone of the instrument a little and you eventually get to the point where you don't need support to get a fuller sound and realise that your saxophone sounds better without it.

Happy purchase Review Rovner Dark 1R

Carrowkeale 03.11.2013

I had originally used the standard ligature (metal) which came with my sax, but the new Rovner along with a new Legere studio reed has stopped many of my squeaks and should help improve my progress on the alto sax. The ligature is a bit tricky to place correctly with the reed and I suspect the material will become more flexible after an initail break in period. I am happy with my purchase.

It will keep your reed in place

kilovanni 27.12.2023

I originally got this ligature when getting my first decent mouthpiece for my alto saxophone. I wanted a simpler ligature with less moving parts. My previous ligature had two screws, which was way too many in my opinion. This ligature has only one screw, and it does a perfect job in keeping your reed in place, which, arguably, is the most important job of the ligature.

What else can I say? It is a quality piece of gear, and will beat any "stock" ligatures that come as an afterthought alongside your mouthpiece or saxophone purchase.
