I like my Rovner very much but there is one minor problem with it. I use two
different mouthpieces depending on the style of music I'm playing. The
Rovner ligature eventually streatches into a shape that matches a particular
mouthpiece and reed. If you use the ligature on a different mouthpiece you
may find that it won't fit the same. That is not a problem for me since I
prefer a different ligature on my other mouthpiece. If you intend to use
different mouthpieces often you may want to invest in a second ligature.
