Has anyone been using one of ALLPOINT ligatures made by Carl Jackson?

I've been using one for the past couple of months.
I really like it a lot. Very much like the sound and feel of it.
Sadly, I find the materials used could be improved, and I cannot take the mouthpiece off without removing the reed and ligature (but I use the same barrel on both clarinets, so it's not much of a problem)
I really like it so far. Oh, I'm using what I think he calls the original, or something. It's all leather, with three leather pads in contact with the reed. It feels for me quite like string, but with a little more hold.

I use these ligatures all the time. And very pleased. It is so natural that I do not think about it.

I like the tone on the coin ligature. It's very clear and articulates and responds well. I agree with Curiousclarinetist, it's not the best for large ensemble work because I find it doesn't project as well as BG or Bonade. It is perfect for chamber music though! I really like it!
