Joue Joliet Ligature

Hi,
I was just wondering ......... do any of you use a Joue Joliet Ligature perchance ?
I'd be interested in any views on it - I had one when I first started to learn the clarinet and really liked it - sadly it got damaged and I've not really found one I like as much.
Thanks
Sue

Sue,

I think I posted about this ligature before but I love mine. I have some ligatures I like better but for about $8 US when I got it, it is easy to use, worked well, and was an exceptional value.

Sue,

I keep coming back to a modified Gigliotti that worked on with a Dremel (removed all but the ends of the rails that touch the reed). Then it is an original Luyben. Total cost when new as a total of about $15US.

But the JJ is really uncomplicated and easy to use with the one screw.
