 Re: Think your ligature matters?

I don't need a definition of what prejudice is but examples of where I have its preconceived opinions, as I've requested, "not based on reason or actual experience." I'm not the only one who finds ligatures not nearly as important as their price differential might suggest they are. Are we all prejudiced?

What excuses am I making for one argument over another? I've pointed out flaws in both of Lowenstern's videos, citing that while I think his original video that suggests that the ligature doesn't matter as much as people might think or hope doesn't mean that everything he used as a ligature was ideal. I also cited flaws I saw in the second video. I've cited evidence that if there were a holy grail in ligatures we wouldn't see so many varieties, or star players working with "ordinary" ligatures.

There's a simple way to prove that my notions are preconceived. Bring forth scientific testing of ligatures showing uniformity and reproducibility of results. Until such time I'll stand by opinions based on reason and experience: both mine and that of others more experienced than me. That's fair.

People should buy whatever they want. But one person's improvement in play is, even assuming it's real and not perceived, anecdoctal at best. In the meantime, show me a ligature manufacturer that has real data that shows their ligature better, but for some reason chooses not to publish it.

Show of hands, how many people had teachers who said to you, "play this ligature or go take lessons from someone else?"

Yeah, me neither.
