Re: The Pomarico light ligature

That paper slippage is exactly what I'm talking about. Just let it slip out and throw it in the garbage. The bare ligature will not scratch your mouthpiece any more than any other metal ligature.

Elblufer,

Poor discription on my part !! I just mean a very light sanding. What in effect you are doing is scoring the interior surface of the metal so that it grips the surface of the mouthpiece. Since you want to prevent slipping up and down, the tiny grooves in the metal that you sand into it would work best if they were running the LENGTH of the ligature.

Ever nervously twist a ring about your finger? Like that. The ligature is your ring and your finger is the sandpaper.

.......oh, no.............another bad description !!!
