 Re: Clamp that sucker down!

I think I dare to bring some of my experience with ligatures, it may possibly be instructive for some thinking.

In an attempt to be as brief and as understandable as I can (something that I should work a lot upon), I just summarize the essential points (and will give more explanations/examples, as further discussion (if any) unravels):

1) Shoelaces (nylon specifically) can do a great job acoustically. For those blessed with the dexterity to put them fast and reliably and the skills to play them comfortably without reed disruption - there may be no need to look any further:)

2) Ligatures seem to matter significantly more for open mouthpieces.

3) Less dampening ligatures offer more possibilities to control/modify higher frequencies/overtones elsewhere in a clarinet acoustical setup.
