Re: Plastic ligatures

While I find the sound I get using a Luyben ligature not to my liking I think it's a pretty good product (and know at least one pro clarinet player who did a concerto performance using one, plus met a German soloist who cuts them in half and just uses the smaller half on his German mouthpiece instead of string).
One advantage - I like these for student use, as standing/sitting/squashing them doesn't seem to do any damage.
re the Vinson ligature- I quite like these, and used to use one for teaching until i gave it to a student and never saw it again... I've been meaning to buy another for ages but never get around to it... the difference is very very very slight, but I DO think they sound a little better than the Luyben.
