Re: gf system ligature

Two things:

1 )I got them after committing to Legere so the difference of sound with typical ligatures was already muted.

2) The area of contact is dramatically smaller than any "typical" plate, really just an elongated point.

The difference lies in using the pouch on the reed or the "plate." As one would expect, the plate is a little more defined; vibrant. The downside is that the reed will rotate almost no matter how firm you dial up the pressure because the plate swings rather freely around the center mooring bolt (you'd have to see it). On the upside, this ligature is the most defined sounding of any "leatherette" or leather pouch when used with the pouch holding the reed.
