I've been using a Gigliotti mouthpiece for a little while. I like it very =
much, and I was wondering how many other clarinetists use them. Somehow =
I've gotten the impression that they are not very popular. I'm on a =
search of a new ligature, I've tried many but I was also wondering what =
ligatures are being used by others with a Gigliotti.

Thanks,

Hi Susan...

I used a Gigliotti mouthpiece for a couple of years with a leather Rovner =
ligature. I didn't like the way it responded when a metal ligature was =
used. (Oh yes, and I was using V12s.) Since then, I've gone back to my =
Pyne because I cannot find anything that will allow me to equally create =
it's dark, resonant tone.

I didn't dislike the Gigliotti per se @-----.
