Product details
Description
Elevate your musical performance with the Bonade Soprano Saxophone Ligature Model 2257G, a trusted classic designed by renowned clarinetist and educator Daniel Bonade. Crafted from durable solid brass with a brilliant gold-lacquered finish, this accessory is engineered to optimize sound quality and harmonic resonance.
Unlike standard models, it features an innovative two-screw inverted layout equipped with unique interior pressure ribs. These ribs grip the reed at small off-center points rather than pressing flat across its surface, effectively preventing warping, binding, and air leaks.
By allowing the edges of the reed to move and vibrate completely freely, this ligature helps maximize your existing reeds, expand your dynamic range, and boost overall tone volume, warmth, and clarity. Whether you are practicing in the studio or performing on stage, this reliable professional-grade ligature delivers the stability and tonal response required by both advancing students and seasoned musicians.
How to use
- Place the reed onto your soprano saxophone mouthpiece facing table.
- Slip the Bonade ligature over the mouthpiece and reed carefully, ensuring the pressure ribs align properly with the reed.
- Adjust the position so the reed is centered and secure, then evenly tighten the two screws until the reed is held firmly without being overtightened.
