I read a post on ligatures where Hiroshi speaks of a Bonade Trad-Gold plated...I looking around and can not find it...I see a BG traditional that is gold plated, but I can only find a Bonade regular silver plated...Can anyone please let me know where I can find and try this Bonade traditional gold plated ligature?

Bino -

I'm not aware of a "trad" or "traditional" model name Bonade ligature.

I don't think the Bonade ligatures are originally made with gold plating. Rather, one of the big sellers -- Muncy, or perhaps Weiner or Bay -- does the plating and sells them through their catalog.

Best regards.

Muncy sells gold plated traditional Bonade ligatures. (I'm assuming that by traditional, you mean non-inverted, correct?) I sometimes use a nickel-plated one, and sometimes a gold. I just took one of my Bonades to a local jeweler, who replated it for me.
