I tried the ligature at Ricardo's apartment, so it was whichever model he
uses. If the super revelation is the one with the metal insert, that's the
one. I tried the other models too, but I liked that one the best.

Incidentally, we had a really fun morning together. After trying each other's
equipment and passing things back and forth, we went out for lunch and talked
way too much shop. We had known each other only from auditions and it was
nice to finally spend a little time together.
