I have run into trouble with clarinetists regarding their ligatures. Most
that my students use are either traditional or Rovner and are not made for
left handers.

I have been able to reverse the screw successfully on the Rovner ligatures
for the lefties, but the standard ligature screws seem to be able to go only
one way and do not fit properly reversed.

Any others that may fit the bill.

Forgive me if this topic has been covered already.

Sincerely,
Georgette Calzati
